Suburau PDX service center recomendations

Anybody want to chime in on the best dealer service center in the PDX area? I seen plenty of bad reviews, but hoping folks have had good luck with at least one in the area.

it is 2800 miles round trip to the place of purchase, so that is out

Thanks in advance,
Will

Skip the stealership, go to a performance shop for more choices on fluids/parts etc.

Good choice. Actually I'll be doing most at my own shop at home, but was thinking ahead if there was any warranty work or similar problem crop up. Wanted to be prepared.

thanks,
Will

I take mine to CARR subaru because I have free service still they take care of my car and have not left a bad taste in my mouth yet. Haven't done any warranty work though so I can't touch on that.

I haven't had any warranty work done but when i took mine to Gresham subaru twice the let me drive the car into the shop and out of the shop " i told them i wouldn't let them drive it, the shop guy said i could drive it in and out for them". So i didn't have to worry about a fuck tard damaging the car. Also i took my car to Gresham to have the airbag lights reset after i upgraded to custom seats and they didn't charge me for resetting the airbag light.

Darren's garage, my garage, Drift Office, then choices get a little less desirable which would be PRE for non-warranty stuff and Gresham Subaru for warranty stuff. Gresham Subaru is the best out of the local dealer bunch as far as I'm concerned and most others I've heard, and I've been to all of the local ones except Hillsboro.
