Our outback needs its 30K service, and our dealer (Walker) quoted us $569 which seems absurd. Anyone have recommendations for a good independent Subaru shop in Seattle, prefereable Ballard/north seattle?

 

Thanks!

Andy's on Aurora

 

I second that emotion.

 

 

The one on Lake City Way is good too, but expensive. Andy is less expensive and does a great job and will hit on your girlfriend.

Just a heads up....went through this with my Honda....be careful when comparing prices for 30/60/90K services. In my experience the recommended service typically includes both mandatory things (oil, filters, plugs), and if needed fluid et al replacements. Some shops quote you based on the assumption that they will only be doing the mandatory things, and then will charge extra if the "as needed" things need to be done. Others will quote you based on the assumption that all things will be done - mandatory and "as needed", and may or may not deduct for the "as needed" items that weren't needed, and others will quote based on, and replace all automatically.

 

Just make sure you get an apples to apples quote as there can actually be a fair bit of variance in "standard" services.

My Mechanic, just off Aurora on 97th or thereabouts. Great service, David will sit you down and take the time to explain what he did and why. I don't know if he'll hit on your girlfriend, but he'll take care of your Subie.
