Ok guys,
Really need your help here. Took my 05 WRX in for a service at a main dealers - BIG mistake! cost me £373 and it came back covered in oily hand prints.
However, the really bad news was when they said that it needed a new shocker on the back. Now, this car has been over serviced - current mileage is 22k and I had just had the 30k one done. It has been cossetted by the 1st owner and I have done the same.
Am I really to expect subaru shocks to fail at this mileage? I argued this point at the garage but although clearly embarrased they would not budge an inch - "out of warranty, tough shit" basically.
Question is, is it worth persuing as a manufacterers fault? Have any of you guys had shocks fail this early?
Prior to this car I had a bugeye on a 52 plate and had to change the rear shocks on that also.
Oh, but the garage were really helpful and said they would only charge me £360 to relpace - just the one !!!!!
Any advice would be really useful.
Thanks
Tim.
