I definitely had it for a while and was gonna bring it up along with my oil change. I'm at about 8000 miles right now, and just recently noticed that I don't hear the cricket-chirping noise anymore.

I just hope it won't be back after the oil change though.

Yup, before the TSBs came out I switched to ethanol-free 93 octane and still heard crickets the next day. Then I went to the dealer the next week to get the TSB done and could not reproduce the crickets. The master tech said people come in all the time with their other Subarus making similar noises and it is due to using fuel with some sort of ethanol mix.
