Yeah, I've only heard bad things about the downers grove location. However, I get ALL my service done at the Countryside location. They've been really upstanding, cooperative, and helpful.
EDIT: I just noticed your mods questions. I've heard from more than one source, that downers grove looks very poorly on mods. I took delivery of a car there once, but I've never been there for service. I wouldn't exactly call countryside 'mod friendly', but they've always been very supportive of upgrades to my car. If you're worried, I would call them (whoever you want service from) and talk to them _before_ you bring your car in. Be upfront and honest. Tell them, "Look, I have so-and-so on my car. I want the 6 bazillion mile service, but I don't want place my warranty in jeopardy." If approached like that, countryside has always given me an honest answer -- even when the answer was, "honestly, we don't know". Ask for chad.

I got my car there, the sales guys were really nice. The finance manager or whatever seemed to be very anti-mod and I haven't gone there for service. I went to the Naperville/Aurora one and they didn't give me any trouble and I was in the middle of installing gauges. I had no a pillar on and the ecu wires hanging out. All he asked me was if I was installing speakers or something and I said no and he left it at that

You know you don't have to go to the place you purchased your car to service it. I bought mine from larry roesch and i go to schaumburg mitsu. It's a nationwide warranty so no matter where you go you can get service. I have intake and BOV and i'm fine at schaumburg. Just be careful though, if you go to one dealer and they screw you they'll put it in their computer and all the dealers will be able to read it. Good Luck.

Max Madsen in Counrtyside would not fix my problem with howling noise when downshifting from 3rd to 2nd, even when the tech rode with me and I reproduced the problem many times. Everything is "normal"

Anyone with mod/warranty issues at Schaumburg Mitsu? I bought my car there, but I've been too cheap to take it back for oil changes (keep receipts instead). I've been freaked ever since I heard that horror story of the guy who threw a rod at auto-x later to find out he had been blacklisted.

Nah. I dont think they will open up my transmission to see what the problem is. They told me if it breaks down, then it would be worth looking at. Im just going to avoid the stupid dealers now and get my transmission rebuilt at Teamrip when I get my quaife diff and new clutch. After these mods, and possible turbo upgrade there will be no turning back for warranty work
