Go read the first 50 posts of this thread and PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE quote the post in question. PLEASE, IT SHOULD BE EASY. JUST DO IT.
and when I went to the Dallas, TX Audi dealership to spend $1500 on something to get my car fixed...I can assure you I didn't see a bunch of fancy degrees on the wall...and I didn't think to myself "oh shit, there are no degrees on the wall! These guys are going to **** up my car!"
I did think, "yeah, I'm going to get ****ed here...this is the god damn dealership."
but my dad kept such good care of this car and he told me to get the oil changed at Audi, to not be a cheap asshole and put premium gas in the car, and to get all of the work done at the actual dealership so I listened to him.
I, however, felt as if I didn't need to go spend $500 at the dealership to get a new mirror...you know, since it's the passenger side mirror and it isn't illegal in Illinois to drive without one....
after the hail damage ruined the appeal of the car to me (it was a ****ing nice car before it got hailed on)...I no longer feel the need for it to be a fancy, luxury car and that's why I researched around and bought my own mirror that cost 1/3 of the money it would have when I got a quote from Audi. |
Sorry, not reading that 235,231,388 character response, just pointing out that you weren't told it would take 5 minutes, by a technician. Just a joe schmoe. And you're wrong about just about everything you just wrote.

Why would I quote it? You could easily go to the first page or two and read your own post yourself.

That could be very true.
And the sad thing is, it'll be the cheapest you will ever pay for a doctors visit, out of pocket.
