Noise is one thing. A change in noise is completely different. This was a change in noise. There was definitely a squeal when pressing on the clutch that wasn't there before.

I've been working on my cars for 45 years. This was not a new noise to ignore on a new car.

The Subaru guys didn't have anything to do with the work. They just identified the noise when the Toyota guys didn't have a clue. They were never even going to work on the car.

The Toyota guys continued to show they don't have a clue when they created all these other problems.

FWIW, even though they messed up other things, the noise definitely went away with the new TOB.

Also, it's not just a stiff shift into 1st and 2nd. You really need to push very hard to get it to go. So hard, my daughter couldn't even get it to go into gear. Yes, she probably could have pushed harder. But it should NEVER be so hard that anyone thinks it is blocked out. Cold or otherwise.
