My brz is definitely not acting right. I brought my brz to a South coast Subaru, Timmons in LBC.

These the issues I am having and what the dealers response are.

Condensations in DRL and taillight - Was told it was normal if it goes away in a day it's no problem...wth!

Idle drop consistently - They straight up said to me...what idle drop? stop reading the forums! I was like wth! go look at the car and they said "sometime the car does that, if there is no CEL and doesn't stall it's within spec"...wth! (I already did the recall from subaru for the ECM, didn't help)

Noise from the back spot welds - They said they couldn't reproduce. I just went to autozone and got WD-40 to fix it temporarily as suggested by people in this forum.

Right from speaker has loud rattle noise when bass gets deep - They didn't hear anything. They told me it's rocks on the freeway...

Fuel pump chirp - They told me it's normal for a HPFP.

I know my car isn't running well and I really need a dealer who is willing to at least look at my car and take it seriously.

Any suggestions? I live in OC/LA boarder.
