I also don't know what TOB was in the car. So I can't tell you if ours came with an updated one from the factory.

you have a MY18 and they updated the part back in 2017 so ya definitely had the updated one from the start.
too many issues have been created/caused by concern due to "noise" on this platform...you never mentioned whether there was actually a problem experienced by your daughter, just a concern for the "noise" emanating from the clutch.. Could very well be nothing was wrong from the start, the Subie techs were either clueless or wanted to satisfy you guys and went along with a bad TOB and ended up doing a poor job installing it thus causing actual problems..
at this point it sounds like ya guys have it working fine, the car can be clunky especially cold (start ups under 60 degrees here in arizona is noticeably different than starting my car up in the middle of a 120 degree summer day) drive the car when it is fully warmed up, the notchy shifts it will go away. get a louder exhaust or turn up the music ^^
