I've just moved from the North Shore where I bought two xBs from Atlantic Scion. No complaints.

But I've moved out to central Mass, and its about 70 miles to go back to them. Locally I have Norm Wagner Scion and Harr Scion in Worcester.

Any recommendations? I need to get my first service done on my box, it's about 2500 miles over it's 3000 mile service and the maintenance light is on :lalala:

Both of those are about 20 miles away, is it worth the drive for the dealer service, or should I just pay up and go to Midas around the corner and pay for it?

you have 3 free oil changes from Scion, right? Use them first, you've already paid for those!! The fee is hidden in that thing we call a car payment :rofl:

It's just so damned difficult to get to those places :)

When I moved I took on a 65 mile commute, so if the Midas oil change, which isn't that expensive, is good enough for this, then it's a quicker solution than driving out there :)

Nothing wrong with going to another service center. I get most of my work done at a local full service shop, I've been going there for years, they have worked on my last 4 vehicles. Always have been honest, fair and stand behind their work. And they are taking a personal interest in the tC, even discussing rims and tires with some kinda sponsorship, we'll see. Yesterday it took them 15 minutes to swap out the stock drive pulley for a light weight, and didn't charge.

Who knows, you might meet some cool ppl at Midas.

I think thats my best bet then, heading to the local Midas and have them do it. Thanks for the advice.

Clair Scion!

It's bit of a road trip for an oil change and 5000 mile service :)

I ended up going to Harr Scion, they were pretty good.

i had my last oil change done at norm wagner.. its a nice place. last time i went to get some coolant and the parts department was closed so the scion manager hooked me up. He gave the coolant for free in exchange for a ride in my care cause its the first turbo tc he has seen.

Where exactly in central MA are you, if Harr in Worcester is 20 miles away? I bought my tC at Herb Chambers on rt 20 in Auburn - had my 3 free oil changes done there, no problem.

well im from hudson but am living in leominster.. i can get to normwagner in 5min... I work in worcester down the street from Harr.. but i have also been to bernardi lol... out of them all i like norm wagner

Uhhh, well then, I was of no help. When you said central Mass, I assumed closer to Worcester. Templeton???? Hell, you're closer to Canada than Worcester! (j/k)

I like Herb Chambers in Auburn. I got two of my free oil changes there, plus the visor recall. Nice place, nice people, good service.

Herb Chambers is where I bought my tC. Very professional people. You can tell they've been doing it for a while.
