hopefully that takes care of the oil consumption. I'll look into the "Subaru" flush thing. Due to living and working in the sticks I haven't heard of that. The 15w40 makes sense, at least you can rule out (or in) mechanical damage. Still fighting the same thing on the Tribeca of Doooom. Luckily for me the buck was passed to the hourly guy. The left bank advance is slow. thinking about a new head for the 3.0L. Possibly you have the same thing has happened to your car. One side is worn more than the other dropping oil pressure on that side, causing reduced cam advance on that side.
Subaru makes a additive that you add to your oil just before a oil change and it's suppose to help remove sludge and bad stuff inside the motor. It's only like 15-20 over the parts counter. Try it

engine flush done and 15w40 added. 180 miles later no codes. keeping my fingers crossed she just needs to keep running heavier oil
