Smart move. I really shouldn't have got it done (my gut feeling was to not do it), but I kept getting notices from Subaru to get it done. If I had read this forum last year before getting the work done, I would likely have held off.

I will escalate with Subaru corporate. If I get nowhere with the repair shop or corporate, I may look at hiring a local shop to partially take the engine apart to see if there is silicone sealant anywhere in the oil. I don't trust the Subaru shop to check this.
