On the other hand, if a client told me the truth (and didn’t waste my time), and asked if I could do anything to help, I wouldn’t think twice. I’d do whatever I could to help. Your approach would probably end up back-firing.
For the most part YES! Service advisors, shop foremans, and the mechanics are idiots and so easy to put together. You should see how i put them together when i need warranty repairs done on my C32 that i know ARE NOT covered under warranty. I know the car business like the back of my hand, i know how to pull one over on someone and f*ck them so hard they wont even know what hit them. I remember at SF benz the shop foreman came to me and said "Ruben, god damn it you pulled one over on me you know that right?" I said, "yes i know" And i had gotten a new exhaust system at their cost!

Dealers make enough money as it is, they can take a hit on one car
