Think of it this way...they are basically your 'servant' for a half-hour or more. How would you feel after an hour of serving someone and getting payed $5 total for it. A 15%-20% tip really isn't that much. I know a lot of people that run restaurants. Always be nice to people the bring or cook your food...ALWAYS!

OP, there is no need to tip the advisor. It might even be insulting because some might consider themself as more white collar. I'd tip the tech actually working on the car if they did a really good job. Buy the service advisor guys donuts or something if they really helped you out.
Very well Put- thanks for sharing this comment

I give the owner of my dealer here a nice bottle of wine and tip the tech. I cannot say enough about my dealer. The owner started as mech many many years ago on Nissan's. Family place great people and atmosphere. Unlike any dealer I had in the US ever. No comparison.
