SOA called me yesterday, and they agree with my outlook on all this, but they can't do anything. They called another local dealer and asked if they had anyone familiar with the SVX and were told no. I also discussed the fact that the Subaru dealers I've gone to told me they don't bleed the brakes when they replace brake fluid, and that brake fluid replacement is limited to removing some fluid from the resevoir and adding some new fluid. Even SOA agreed this will not put new fluid in the lines. The dealers charge a lot of money for periodic maintenance like this, but it's a joke. Same thing for tranny fluid -- they don't remove the pan or replace the filter or wipe off the shavings on the magnet. Oh well.
I'm going to ask my local mechanic to check the injectors and a few of the other items mentioned by others.
