Subaru Forester Burning oil Problem

Hi I have a 2003 Forrester with 207k
When I went to put oil into the car, white wisps of smoke came out of the oil tank. The car was low on oil and took 2 quarts. Is this a sign of burning oil? Is it repairable? Thanks Andi

it 's using oil but with that many miles how long was it since you checked it? if it uses a qt every 1,000 miles don't worry about it. just check your oil sounds like you haven't been doing it to often
