Default what a difference a service makes

don't know what Subaru did at my 10k service last week but I am now getting 26mpg from my new age whereas before I was getting 23mpg. I do about 500 miles a week so it's saving me some money too.

They didn't report any problems so I'm surprised to see that an oil change has made such a difference.

Maybe they reset a fault code in the ecu, but whatever its a good result

The biggest differance I noticed after a service, was when they changed the airfilter at 30,000 miles. Loads better pickup, and loads smoother.
