Subaru Forester 99000 miles Am losing 1 quart every 1000 miles. High milage motor oil isn't helping.
There is noticeable oil on the front of engine passenger side.
Please help

OK
Most common leak is the cam seals. Get the timing belt and seals done. 1 quart/1000 miles is considered acceptable

Either Forward Portion of the Head Gasket or "Front Main Crank Seal!"

Well it is time for a timing belt and the oil seals are right there also.You most likly have a cam seal leaking.Have them both replaced for about an addition of $50 and happly drive it another 100,000 miles

You have to find out where it's coming from first.If you can't tell for sure then go to a parts store or WalMart and get some engine cleaner.FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS.Go to a car wash and spray off the engine cleaner.Watch it for a few days until you can tell where it's coming from.

Gasket? When my car was leaking oil, it was coming from the there, the gasket needed to be replaced.
