no brake fluid disappearing or dripping? is this model like some later ones where corroded hardlines might let bf 'pool' on top of the fuel tank or something?

I dunno, but, maybe try a batt disconnect reset? is the defrost setting selected on hvac? maybe try a setting without the a/c comp.? just some easy things to try....

The valves will float at around 9K rpm, that's about it.

1. Needs bled. I hear it’s been bled a lot - but it’s hard to tell without having done it myself. I’ve seen a number of times when a system is opened like that that they’ll need more than a 32 ounce bottle to get all the air out. Like 2 32 ounces. Not those little useless bottles. if it hasn’t run 60 ounces straight of proper bleeding I wouldn’t rule this out 2. If it’s got any rust the rear lines can leak above the gas tank and you won’t see it for awhile. The rust migrates through layered rust just soaking it and if it drips it hits the top of the gas tank with gobs of dust that soaks it up. Takes awhile to get enough build up to flow over the edge and finally be visible. But I don’t know if you’re in a rusty area Subaru master cylinders fail so rarely that I wouldn’t assume it this early. The one time I swore up and down it had to be a master cylinder i replaced it and same symptoms. It ended up being rust like I described above

well its a first for me. found the issue for the fogs not working and also explains the burning smell i had a while ago. both hid bulbs in the fog lights the wires burned off from the bulbs and both ballasts melted and the whole setup kinda self destructed. i stuck my old led setup back into there and the fogs are working again.
