Jun 3, 2013 at 4:03 comment added Orac @Ventullo: Yes it does (oops). In my defense, the KW-argument I give doesn't require Ihara's Lemma (the proof goes through Taylor's Ihara avoidance), and so generalizes well to higher rank groups.
Jun 3, 2013 at 3:07 comment added Kevin Ventullo Regarding your extra statement: doesn't this follow already from Ribet's level raising?

Jun 3, 2013 at 2:08 comment added Orac Dear Noam, exactly correct, although since I'm lazy, it was much easier just to look through the Cremona tables. For comparison, the first four primes which split completely in $\mathbf{Q}(E[3])$ are $61$, $313$, $349$, and $373$. (For some reason, I missed the curve of conductor $1952$ on my first try.)

Jun 3, 2013 at 1:22 comment added Noam D. Elkies Thanks for the example :-) I suppose that this deformation theory cannot in general produce a rational modular form satisfying the desired congruence, so it was still not clear a priori that you'd find an elliptic curve (as opposed to some more complicated factor of $J_0(N\ell)$ with a subgroup isomorphic to $E[3]$.
