Which upper bearings and washers are you suggesting? Sorry, I'm still learning since my upgrade from my 900 to my 9-3. I'll spend some time with my parts diagram CD to see if I can find related parts. I suspect what the dealer did was torque the sub-frame as you mentioned. Something must be wrong because the noise comes back very quickly. I'd have to say within a week or two of light town driving.
