Can you 'reccommend' your dealer for servicing?? MY04 WRX still under warranty.

due a 20k service, just a little disillusioned with my dealer... can you reccommend yours??

thanks

SG Petch in Richmond N.Yorks are very good and have a reputation to match , I`m sure several other people on here will agree.

Don't have much faith in them, took them two attempts to realise that the maf was covered in oil after a spell of poor running. It still has a flat spot when it's cold that is annoying, but they can't find anything wrong.

Check the small print, but you should find that as long as you have had the car serviced properly and stamped up in the service book the warranty should still be valid regardless of where the work is carried out, if so try in independant scooby specialist. In my experience independants seem to be more enthusiastic and have a passion for the motors.

If you fancy a non-franchised specialist then consider Jeff & Dean at Subaru Service Centre in Sheffield. Theyre ex-Bentleys factory trained technicians and Id wholeheartedly recommend them; theyre massivley experienced and youll love the bill too.

I thought you could use any VAT registered garage for service work and still keep your warranty??

Something to do with 'block exemption'
