Default Taking my car into the dealership for my first visit Monday

and should I be as nervous as I am? I have been in the business and I understand how things get done back in the shop...and that's why I am feeling uneasy. I just want things to be done right. Im going to MAG in Columbus, Ohio...any opinions? Or can I just relax and assume a squealership's service department would take care of me?

Default You are CPO and stock. Why worry?

Frankly this car (01.5 6MT) has been very reliable (92K now). Have had a few minor problems, but nothing major.

Default worry because many dealership techs are idiots.

i'd rather fix any issue on my car using only a deadblow hammer than trust some of those ogres.

Default I at least have had good experiences at the local dealership. I know that some of these

techs are used to heavily modifed S4's (like Josh D's).
