I Took My Car To An Auto Shop! by Mbeki: 9:31am On Sep 28, 2012
After several disappointments, unprofessional works and pilferage from roadside mechanic, i decided to take my tokunbo Mercedes Benz C230 to an auto shop to work on, the problem with the car as i suspected was the cooling systems, and some cranking noise from the Fan Belt roller, and here is the bill they gave.
Thank God I saw the bill, with this kind of price, is it not advisable to go back to my old roadside mechanics? I need your sincere auto advice.

Honestly, I think you should check out some other places 1st. Most of these auto garage would cut your throat.

Just by looking at the overall cost, I know these guys are crooks, how can you charge 6k for fan belt, na trailer fan belt? Anyway, I've started looking elsewhere since then.

I think you should move this to car talk session,

back to the topic, how much does the car worth for them to charge this ridiculous amount, lucky you since you know what they are going to work on, you can take it to other mechanic and direct them on what to do.

A car I bought for less than 1 million, and they want to collect 142K just for repairs.

Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar. These guys make good money at servicing cars paid from a company's purse. I remember when I used to service a company car for N10k every two months.
N10k just to change engine oil and filter!

That's very expensive, but not too much for a company... I now realized that I made a big mistake taking the car.
