anyone not go in for service for fear of damage
damages at dealership service happen all time and of course they always deny it. My car has had little damages when in for service before but i never mentioned it to them cause it would be a pointless battle.
Now that my car is modded, the last thing i want to do is give them my car with my Volk wheels on it (might just put on my winter tires for service appts) Anyone else try to avoid taking their car in cause they think something will happen to it?
if I ask the service rep to be very careful with my car, it wouldnt make a difference since he is not working on it; if anything it would **** him off I said that.

You should know your service manager, service writers, and at least some of the techs. As was said, have a relationship and be proactive. It works wonders. At my dealership they know my car and know me and seem to take great care of doing things right, ie no scratches on the Volks, no running it through the car wash, etc.
Get to know them, let them get to know you and how very important your car is to you. It works unless you just have a very crappy dealership.

i do have somewhat of a relationship with my dealer, but it isnt a great one. my dealer is reluctant to fix issues so of course I have to push them. They know I am **** about my car but it didnt stop them from putting some scratches on my interior; which was probably done on purpose
Some people think I am too **** about my car but hell I paid 40k for it. I will be as **** as i want. I have found a new dealer that seems much better but just wanted to see if anyone else is as worried as I am.

I have the same worries, of course I've only been to my dealer once so far so the relationship is only starting to build.
I don't know about walking in with a case of beer, I wouldn't want a bunch of drunk techs working on my car :P
Some dealerships enforce the employees only rule in the service area due to liability issues but that really just depends on each service department. If they let you, I would definitely watch, but try not to annoy or distract the mechanics too much.

So you want them to work on your car drunk?

If you have any decent aftermarket rims, you should also have beater wheels. Just throw em on before taking it in for service cuz you know the dealer will treat ur Volks like they treat any other crappy oem wheels.
