Where is clutch bleeder valve located?
on top the the transmission see the pic below.
some versions of the master cylinder will have a bleeder too but you can bleed the clutch from the slave just fine. This job is best done with 2 people or a hand vacuum pump will be required. Keep in mind that the reservoir is small so keep an eye on the level while doing this job

you will have to make this inquiry of the dealer service department or of the manufacturer customer department direct
The problem that may arise is that the company will need proof that the vehicle receive all authorized services since new ( which you would have had done if it was new to you) or their out will be that they cannot be held responsible as the car has not had regular services
if you feel that there may be a case of liability then take the matter to a legal counsel for advice
IN any case the insurance company has to come to the party as it was an accident regardless of the cause and have to honor the contract to repair the vehicle and all details in the policy
again if you feel let down talk with legal adviser

Check the fluid level and quality in the transmission. Its dipstick is on the left (from sitting inside the car, US driver's side) often hidden by hoses/cables. It is the only fluid that must be check while IDLING. If the fluid is low and coffee colored, time for a drain/fill or maybe 3 drain/fill cycles. Only about half the fluid will drain out. 3 cycles of drain, fill, drive-a-little with fresh fluid can often clean some deposits out of the trans. You can also try , on the last fill, to put in a bottle of Trans-X additive. It has helped a lot of people with 'delayed engagement' problems. The low-high marks on the dipstick are only about a pint apart - not a quart like engine oil so, refill a tiny amount when close to full. Without driving the car, difficult to suggest anything else. You might post the issue at w w w.subaruoutback.o r g for more help.
