So I am 4 months and 1900 miles into ownership, and I pondered this thought - Why Would I Ever Service the Emira at the Dealership? I have already changed the oil once myself at 1000 miles (fairly easy, especially with many resources on here), and plan to perform all other maintenance myself when the time comes. (I am retired, so I have nothing but time!) The only other reason I could see is to update the software. However, being a March 2025 build, it likely has most updates, and seeing the thread on the latest update altering track mode, it makes me question why I would ever need to do this as well as long as I am happy with everything as is.
My closest dealership is 2-1/2 hours away, and I struggle with what value this service really provides me beyond what I can do on my own. I personally rather not leave my car anywhere for service, and as far as records go, I keep all receipts and thorough documentation of service in a dedicated booklet for the car. Unless I run into an extreme issue under warranty, I don't plan to ever go back.
Convince me otherwise - GO!
