Reputable/Trusted Toyota dealerships for service near or around Westchester?

Looking to get the car serviced later this month and possibly diagnose a small grinding noise issue. Anyone got a dealer they recommend for the regular service intervals and potential diagnostics for their car? I'm pretty reluctant to trust most of the dealerships based on personal experience, but being early in the mileage I'd prefer to have their documentation.

I'd consider going to AZP installs but they're over an hour away for myself; most likely next time. On that note, if there are other private shops in the area you recommend I'd like to hear about them as well.

AZP would be a good top choice. If you need to keep it local Curry Subaru in Cortland Manor has a good master tech but they kind of don't give you the option of requesting a particular guy especially while they are so backed up with recall work on all of the Imprezas they've sold. That said he did a great job on my engine recall work so it might be worth a shot. They also did a good job when they resealed the timing cover on mine a while back. If you do go there talk to Phil, he's one of the service advisers.

It looks like the OP has an 86 so I don't think Curry Subaru is going to be able to help him.

OwlDance if you can't find someone closer, AZP is a good option. Besides having an 86 as their own racecar (so they're familiar with the engine/platform) 2 (honestly more like 1.5 I guess) other people there drive the same car daily.
If you do go with them try to be the first person on the schedule that day. When other customers are late it affects everyone behind them and given you're over an hour away you want to try to not be in that situation. (Out of their hands when a customer is late).

I didn't look that closely but yeah AZP would be my choice then.
