I just picked up a used 2015 GSW from a dealer a couple of hours away, opting for a "VIP Care" deal usable at any of their dealerships for free oil changes (including synthetic), rotations, fluids, etc., since they said I can use it at their Ford dealer close to me and it winds up being a super deal considering I drive 25-27k/yr and would make out on this. Then on the way home I thought of the issue that a Ford dealer isn't going to have the TDI-specific oil in stock, nor the filter. I called them and they said they'd run next door to the VW dealer (literally within sight of each other) and get what they need. I'm a little concerned that they actually do this. Also, is the weird (to me) filter housing design common nowadays? Would a Ford tech likely to botch this up, maybe having leak oil, or worse yet not even change it? Should I try to cancel the care package?
