I am not set up to do any form of actual hands on work on my car anymore but you want too believe I would want to know what that code said before I took it in. I would then take it to the dealer and let them tell me what they find without saying a word. Since I would hate a customer that came in and tried to tell me what the problem is from reading a code I would not do it to them. Then I would know that we are both on the same page or if they are feeding me a line. I have never once had an issue with a service department and like to think that it was because I did my research and knew what was likely the issue but kept my mouth shut and let them do their job.
I guess I fall someplace between the two camps in this debate.
