You can reference a TSB all you want, but at the end of the day the dealership can't use that TSB to actually write up a work order, nor use it to perform any repair work. They can write it up almost word for word, but the actual TSB itself can't be used because it doesn't apply to your car.

I've already said that's not what I'm doing. All I'm doing is exactly what you said to do which is take it to them and tell them what it's doing. I politely told you that a few posts back but you decided to keep at it.

I don't care how it gets fixed. I'm also not the one who will be diagnosing it. On MY end, I can't help but notice how my issue is eerily similar to the issues from 2012. On THEIR end, I couldn't care less how they fix it.

My OP was mainly about how my dealership says they've never heard of this car having any idling issues whatsoever when that's clearly a lie, and if it's not then they're a Subaru dealership with their head in the sand.
