Please have a look at this invoice. It was about repairing a transmission pan damaged by a small tree log that was buried under mud. It is a real invoice. Could you guess which garage is able to cheat so much?

CONGRATULATIONS, dear Friend!!! Right on the target!

I just got interested in Mechanics. So far I have only paid the invoices without trying to challenge them. Yesterday, I looked at the Transmission Filter that they supposedly replaced. There is no way that they did! A friend helped me do the job. The filter kit was only 22 $ plus Tax. (Their invoice was showing 50.30

+30.30 for the filter kit!) What are the 69.99 for? What are the first 21.60 for? Just to see that the pan was crushed?...) One of the 17 bolts retaining the pan was not the same as the remaining
  1. It was not the same size. Worse it is clear that they had to cut it in order to have approximatively the same length. Very amateur work! We went to see them just 3 days after they did the work. There was a leak. They had probably put then this repalcement bolt...

Shame on them!!!
