This forum generally takes a dim view of dealers' service departments and I have had my share of crappy ones, mainly when I had Volkswagens. And my first Subaru dealer service department took a nasty turn for the worse so I dropped them.
But my current dealer is Golden.
I told them what I'd done. They looked somber. They drove it into the bay and I went in and ate their chips and snack bars.
About an hour later I was summoned. All done, you are good to go. No problems found! And we vacuumed out your car. NO CHARGE!
Wow! I did not expect that. This is the same dealer that went to bat for me with SoA and got a decent rebate against the out of warranty defective throw-out bearing work a few years ago.
Yesterday I went out of town. 4-1/2 hours wheel time. The car ran fantastically well and was a blast like it's been since Day 1.
So... there you have it.

There are good dealers out there still, we just always hear about the bad ones! You know; like everything else in the world
