Dealer screwing me over? (Resolved)
Just had a service B on my slk200 2004 mod last week and last night the check engine light flashes up.
The car starts shaking and making strange noises so i left it at the dealer.
Got a call this morning with them saying it was a ignition coil that was water damaged from an engine wash (never done one in 2 years owning the car). And that there was a rotten intake pipe. To repair this they wanted 2250nok which is about 300$, ok i think but later in the day they call me again.
Now they are saying the mechanic thinks the engine is running strange. So they want to swap the timing chain if i understood them correctly, costing me 8000nok about 1000$. I think this is extremely strange since i just had my car in for service last week, any thoughts?
EDIT: Good news guys, they contacted me and I called them out on their bad work so the chief mechanic called me and told me they will repair everything free of charge plus they got me a loaner while its in the shop. Seems like they knew they screwed up and just didn't want to acknowledge it. Thanks for all the help! :grin:
