How do I know this? I went through EXACTLY what you're going through, and my Toyota "Master Tech" got both of those pointers directly from Subaru... and it solved the issue.
Wow, thanks a lot! I will tell them in the morning. How long did you have to wait for them to realize this/get the right info?
