Very pleased with my service. I also want to thank them for finding the o-ring that needed to be replaced, and recommended me taking it to the dealership, due to the fact that they believed it was still under warranty. See you again!

Easy, specialized, professional, knowledgeable service. Had fluid service done at a great price compared to dealership. This is the place for Subie owners. Will return.
