Yeah, I was afraid of that. Unfortunately I think I'm going to have a hard time convincing them to bleed the brakes even if I offer to pay for it. They're acting all suspicious now, the service writer walked around the whole car checking it out, looking for what I don't know ... signs of abuse maybe? I drive my car hard but I don't abuse it.
