Description of the problem	With 35,600 miles on our 2005 subaru outback xt, the turbo failed. The dealer service technician said this was do to the condition of the engine oil which was 7 months old and had 5,400 miles on it. All 7 of the vehicles oil changes were done within the 7,500 mile interval set forth in owners/vehicle maintenance manual. According to the subaru service bulletin # 02-103-07 (http://store. Forcedperformance. Net/merchant2/graphics/subaru_oil/02-103-07.
