| Does not have to be a Subaru dealer.
Any VAT registered garage using genuine or OEM spec parts with correct oils etc ... and the warranty is ok. Myth that not using main dealers is a warranty rejection. | |

| Derek Slack is where Iddy took his to be inspected I think. The way they stripped the engine down wasn't the best from what I seen.
Obviously a service is a routine job for them. | |

Sure it will be out of warranty now being an 08, unless hes took out an extended one. But to be fair, the warranty Subaru UK offer is a pile of shite anyway. I use Alyn @ ASP for my service bits, i get the reg, date & mileage on the receipt, then get a repitible garage (Drew )to service it the same day & stamp the book, i take a picture of the mileage along with date stamp on the picture. That way it keeps everything in order, if I ever came to sell it. | |

No problem, I've been looking at the receipts I have for Subaru main dealer prices, I'm saving around 60%, for servicing, still using OEM parts & an oil of my choice (Millers) & a mechanic I know & trust, who is well respected in the Subaru community. In my opinion its a no brainer, I'd rather have my book stamped by a Subaru specialist & save some money at the same time. | |

| Yeh you are right im not sure how much a main dealer service would cost as this will be my first service since i bought it back in march but would probly expect around the £450-£500. Is drew the lad with the classic wagon? | |
