Best dealership for warranty/TSB work?

Hi guys!


Time to get my BRZ ready for the summer track season. Except, I really really don't want to take my car to Walker's Renton Subaru for the warranty work/TSBs, since they couldn't even do my first oil change correctly without leaving oil all over my garage floor.


So what stealership has the best/most mod friendly service department? Any experiences or comments?




I'm looking to get the crickets fixed (if possible), rear deck lid creaking fixed, the ECU updated, window buttons fixed, and maybe complain about the 2nd gear issues.

Good question... I had a terrible experience at Titus will in Tacoma, so don't go there. Also, two bad oil changes at Larson Toyota in Tacoma.

Any other reco's anyone? I'd love lots of input- and I know most everyone has had to take their car in for warranty work.

Just run a tank of non ethonol premium every few fill ups and the crickets will dissappear.

Sorry to revive an old thread, but I am also looking for a "mod friendly" dealership. There is a new TSB for the crickets. My local dealer stated they wouldn't look at it because I have a supercharger.

Any recommendations in the Seattle area would be greatly appreciated.
