I would hope that they would be given jobs that are appropriate for their experience and skill level. Learning to carry out a service is part of the first year of the trade.

The problem with dealers, is it is like dealing with a corporation sometimes and not personal.
i.e. Pay $1000 to change some fluids in your car and I ask for the filter or a picture of the filter so I can inspect it and understand how the old fluid went. Pay bill ask for filter or picture and 'oh sorry, we forgot and its binned'. Take it to a smaller performance shop and they just seem to have a bit more attention to give. Sometimes, that isn't the case too! I know I've had some great assistance from Subaru dealers in the past and shit advice from performance shops.

Parts are the killer with gearbox rebuilds, so expensive. Regarding the different oils, I just think that Redline is so overpriced! Syntrax is around half the price, and remember, no gear oil is going to stop teeth getting sheered off by abuse. You have to let the synchro do its job, most synchro's are damaged by people shifting to quickly, effectively beating the synchro

This will definitely be interesting. Subaru need to charge appropriately too.. I paid considerably less elsewhere for my 50K service.. (Almost half).

I agree with that! However i dont agree to seeing aprentices take modified cars for "test drives". That should be done by a senior tech always! Someone who knows you dont need to smoke it up to check the brakes....
