When I used to take my Mazdaspeed3 to the dealer for service, the guy at the front desk always said "we skipped washing it because we would have made your car dirtier than you brought it in".
Classic!

Mine was pretty clean, no damage or swirl marks when I got it back.

I think next oil change I'll wash the car first and ask for no car wash there; probably ask to check the machine out too.

ive worked with my PDR trainer years ago at an audi dealership where the porter ran a brand new A4 through the nylon brush wash and broke off the antenna on the roof + bending the surrounding metal.

we were asked by the dealer to PDR the roof asap before the customer found out wat happened. i was like and the dealer asked 'ken, you can't fix it? ' and i was like 'i can fix the roof, but you guys still have an nylon brush autowash??!! WTF! "
