Oil leak
Just recently I noticed an oil leak. I take it into the dealership to find out its something to do with the oil switch and when the engine was built in the factory a hole was drilled to far or something. So a new engine is being ordered and with only 6,000 miles they are swapping the engine.
Hopefully the rest of my future will be a pleasant one!

Sad Very Sad!
Where to start:
1. First with about 500 miles on my wrx the cd changer got stuck, the dealership had to order a new one and replaced it under warranty.
2. About a month after having my wrx, on my way home from work I get rear ended because of some idot who was fooling around with his radio. Not to worry though the car is fully repaired but I'll always know it was hit. Despite I WILL NEVER EVER USE ROBBIES AUTO REPAIR IN DOVER NJ EVER AGAIN.
3. Just recently I noticed an oil leak. I take it into the dealership to find out its something to do with the oil switch and when the engine was built in the factory a hole was drilled to far or something. So a new engine is being ordered and with only 6,000 miles they are swapping the engine.
