I have heard horror stories about all the dealers. I bought my car at Northland, so they've had my first oilchange and warranty work - no complaints at all.

Of course, I haven't done any engine mods (and won't until the coil/maf/o2 crap is resolved).

I would assume Southcenter is the most mod friendly - however 5th Ave has a new service manager so the old "You have big wheels - we can't work on your engine" mentality may be gone.

I heard Southcenter has a good mod friendly reputation too. Im just scared that when I do get chipped and a have a coil pack failure they wont fix it.... Thats the risk I guess. So the only thing im going to do is that Remus Muffler upgrade since that is the only performance mod you can really do without getting in sh*t

me too, i went to northland for first service went great. later i go on complaining about door rattle, they wont fix it because i lowered car. but i booked appointment 1 week before my install and the rattle was there. so they can suck me.

outta the 3 i like 5th ave now, they tried to fix what northland wouldnt for free. at least they tried.

They sell APR equipped 1.8T cars years ago. Chip friendly? Yes/No.

The computers that they have are not good enough to tell them the car had chipped. They need to guess and try to prank you with some accuse sentences. If you drop in the hole then they win. The only thing those mechanics can do is called butt dyno with their portable computer. They can do the boost pressure and 0-100km test only when they do road test the car. As you know the performance of the car will increased after the chip mod. Will the mechanics have the time to do those tests? I bet not because they are always busy and those tests take time. No advertising so they do not know.

I upped my car and sooner later will put big injectors then my car will pull 170hp and 340ft/lb on wheels. I will invite them to jump on my low rider and rotate these tires, because I need to prove to the diesel disbeliever in that dealership. Yes, it just a fdiesel.
