I think you are on to something there.  My battery
miserably failed its deep cycle test.

Do my subi back from the shop yesterday:

1,320 U$D: battery, injectors, spark plugs and wires,
air cleaner, timing belt, water pump, oil and filter;
flush power steering and brake fluid, tire rotate,
thermostat, oil cooler.

No more burning oil smell.  And my subi is now rock
solid when I accelerate: no more spongy pedal.
It run like a new car now.  I am very pleased.
