  1. OP here with a clarification... The dealer did the oil leak repair after taking the car on trade but before selling to me. Basically they discovered it when checking out the car. They did the oil leak repair, the 60 k maintenance, wipers, battery, detailed it (removed a couple door dings, thoroughly cleaned inside / outside, waxed), etc.
  2. Last week, I purchased a 2013 Legacy with the 4 cylinder engine and 60,000 miles at a Subaru dealer. The dealer did the 60,000 mile service according to Carfax. I wasn't sure what that included so asked a service advisor at the dealership. He told me the following: Changed oil Replaced brake fluid Replaced spark plugs Replaced differential fluid Replaced wipers Replaced battery Oil leak: He said there was one at the front timing cover, they pulled it off, resealed the whole front of the engine / timing cover. I'm not mechanical so didn't know what follow up questions to ask but that is basically what he said. He said the car has been regularly maintained since day 1 at the dealership following Subaru's recommended maintenance schedule. Carfax confirms this. He said the service dept billed the used car department nearly $3,000 for all the work. I doubt they actually pay this much but I'm sure some budget dollars shift around. The sales person also proactively told me the same thing. That there was an oil leak & what they did. I saw the service slip (exactly like what I'd get as a customer) and it had a long list of parts related to the oil leak work. It showed about $2,700 on the bottom. I don't see any oil in the engine area or on the garage floor. I'm wondering if I made a mistake buying this car? On the one hand both the service advisor and sales person proactively told me about this. They clearly didn't have to do that as I wouldn't have known. I also feel better that the work was done at a Subaru dealer vs Butch's Auto Garage (apologies to anyone here named Butch!). On the other hand, the car had some issues. I can return the car within 1 week per the paperwork. So just curious what people think.
