I've got the same problem on my 04 wrx wagon, seems to come
from drivers side rear on mine.
I had a new center diff fitted in january, which i hoped would cure it,
but it's still doing it !
Going back to specialist next week to try & get it sorted.

Mate I know wot the problem is its the rear struts/shock absorbers apparently a common fault they loose there grease and start to stick gradually getting worse
