Excess RTV may only be one part of the problem, as 2022 Subaru BRZ owner finds that oil pressure drops significantly in right-hand corners car auto cars
. Although this seems like a well-designed and well-intentioned effort at discovering what is causing issues in these vehicles, even the people behind the experiment are careful to note that this may be just one part of the problem. For its part, Subaru suggests that dipping oil pressures are a normal thing.“Subaru of America stands behind the design integrity of the FA24 engine which is used reliably in thousands of vehicles,” Subaru told Carscoops in a statement.
Also significant, the experiment found that even vehicles that have remedied the issue previously believed to be causing engine failures – that is, excessive RTV in the oil pan blocking the pickup – experienced the oil pressure fluctuation in right-handers. That means that even vehicles that have been “fixed” could still be at risk of experiencing engine damage.
Although it remains unclear exactly why the pressure drops in only one direction , some aftermarket companies are already designing products that may help solve this issue, providing some hope for Subaru BRZ and Toyota GR86 owners who just want to track their cars safely.
