I own a Legacy wagon with the same motor/miles on
it and the NASIOC website has a lot of info on
this anomaly. It has something to do with the
valve cover breather system and the fitting of an
aftermarket venting system that supposedly cures
the problem. Leakdown test would also help pinpoint the problem.

Hello all
I have an EJ22 that is using a lot of oil. Runs
great,seems to have plenty of power, no smoke
but uses a least 1 quart of oil every 500-600 miles.
I do not know the history,other then I was told
the heads have been replaced,timing belts. The odmeter reads 157000 miles.
The main question I have is Can the pistons be
remove via the oil pan,(with out splitting the
case). I was thinking of replacing the piston rings.
I will be thankful for any ideas.
Chuck
