The service quality you get should have nothing to do with what car is being serviced.

One question, whey did they not take the wheels off to bleed the system? I have not done mine yet, but I would think that it would be much easier to bleed the system with the wheels off.

You definitely need to have a conversation with the service manager. any damage they need to take care of. Maybe they will give you a GT3 loner while they fix your wheels. Hopefully you took some pictures before you cleaned them yourself otherwise it could be a he said, she said situation.
I cleaned the back, not the front. No pics, was really pissed. Just wanted it cleaned up and done. Fronts still have an oil slick and a wipe of that area. Valves are still wet with fluid.

That will be my first question tomorrow. If it takes 3 minutes to remove a wheel, why not just remove them???
