  Sounds like management, personell and attitude problems to me. 
I worked in a VW shop and we only had one tech with an attitude 
anything like that.  He lost his job fairly quickly.  Those of us that 
handled the situations professionally kept our jobs, liked working 
on the cars and worked through any challenges.
  Frankly I STARTED driving VW's because of the robustness and 
simplicity of working on them.  MB's can almost make me lose my 
cool.  Good cars, just really tight quarters on almost every bolt.
