I lived with cold engine piston slap on my last Subie for over 200K with no issues. However, the sounds I've been hearing out of this boxer (my fourth boxer BTW), are not piston slap and only happens...

Sorry to hear. Just remember after flipping a coin 99 times and it coming up heads 99 times, the odds on the 100th flip are still 50/50. Same things could happen to you in a new car, or not happen...
