They are also trying to source parts from Subaru, because even if the issue is unknown the sensor is still busted and need replacement.
I will find out tomorrow morning if I get to take my baby home, or a loan car... which will be a corolla or yaris... hmmm not overly joyed but any car will do at this stage. I said I'd rather they keep the car and get this issue fixed then get it to me quick for it to break again.
I did say I thought it was the ECU from the start, I swear no one listens to me because I am a young women in a full suit... Im not a pro but I know my car. I know how it's meant to feel and sound - and I know when something is off.
Wasnt there an ECU upgrade on the 25th October overseas?

I hope the dealer contacted TMCA in the first place, as the billetin above requested, as TMCA do have everything required to fix cars. If they didn't, I completely understand why the issue reoccurred ...
The ECU is not the sole factor, but it is part of the puzzle of this problem.
Be careful when talking about software from other countries, as software can be different for every country and not all get certification at the same time. The US regulations are flexible, but Australian ADR approval is comparatively rigid and takes longer for approval.
