I get ripped off, too

Holy crap! What did you do when you brought it to their attention? Did you get your money back? I
hate people like that.
I brought my old MB 220D in once when It wasnt running well. On the bill was plugs/wires/cap/rotor.
Again, they didnt touch the thing.... When I tried to convince them that diesels dont use
plugs/wires/cap/rotor they pleaded ignorant. I finally got my money back.
