Just to give you an idea... I had a woman bring a 1988 subaru turbo wagon in, for me to take a look at it. It suddenly stopped running one day and it had about 150k miles on the clock... The dealer charged her 400 dollars for diagnostics, and told her that they couldnt figure out the problem... didnt take me long to realize that the timing belt had broken... but she still got charged for diagnostic time by the dealer w/ no fixes. So really, you didnt get hurt too bad, and no one has ever told me a story about a Mercedes leaving the dealer for less than 380 bucks heheh
