The headgasket started seeping on my 99 9-5SE at about the same mileage. I did not replace the headgasket until @110,00 miles only after drips started appearing on garage floor. It took that long to become a problem for me. Never had to add oil between oil changes either. This is a known problem and the new gasket is said to resolve this. My water pump is still original. Good luck,
Ian
