Someone will know what is going on w your car and they aren't on this forum.
The dealer would not even look at the car for over a week, that's not reasonable for a simple diagnosis.

I took the car to a local Subaru expert, he actually diagnosed it (correctly) over the phone from my symptoms and fixed it the next day.

Center diff is apparently a common problem, he does one every other week.

$1500 and it's fixed.
