Just had the Impreza Serviced at SP's and would like to thank them for the good price/service.

Also got to go out in their modified 03WRX. Very Very Nice...!!!

One minor complaint with my car though. The car still has a smell of new oil when you get in. I've checked under and around the car and can't see any signs of a leak.
Has anybody else experienced anything like this after a service? Any ideas?

when you drain the gearbox it emptys over a bit of the exhaust and no matter how much you wipe off it still smells it should burn off after a bit. and if it's a turbo on refilling it can blow back if filled up to quick so it runs down the side of the gearbox also causing an oil smell

Iain at SP,

Sounds too good to be true seeing as my 30K'er cost me £450 at Welch's in Cambridge.

What are the prices for 37.5K and 45K services? My 37.5K is on Tues 25th March at £110 - doubt u can beat that by much but Im hoping ur 45k will be a lot cheaper.

Thanks,
Simon.
