Yes you are correct but you cannot get to the LED unit for the brake light. It can only be replaced by a full light according to Subaru.

do i need to replace the full rear light to rectify this fault, it looks like you cannot get into the rear of the lamp unit, any advice please.

Thanks Mr B. I will remove unit and inspect as this is what I keep going to for the noise, hopefully a good clean out of the inside and flap will cure the noise.

I am new to Subaru and have try'd various search's to try and identify this unit but with little success.Can any one please tell me what this unit is called and what is its purpose, my xv has a rather annoying squeak when touching the throttle pedal very lightly on and off, I have traced the squeak to this unit on the exhaust pipe but before attempting to remove itto see if I can stop the squeak I would very much like some information on it.
