I installed a dash cam a while back and brought in my FR-S today for the idle re-flash (which they wouldn't do because no CEL) and an oil change at 950 mi for the break-in period. The shop foreman and a tech both drove the car before/after the oil change. Both of them basically redlined the car twice. Pulling out of the dealership and the last turn before pulling back in. I know that's not going to break the car, but it pissed me off. There's absolutely no need to be gunning the car (especially during the factory-recommended break-in where you aren't supposed to take it over 4k RPM) when checking for an idle issue and changing the oil.
