It was not till the next day that i noticed the leak on the floor . Now mine you I know mechnical things fail I have 37.1313 on the odometer of my 1992 300E not a leak from her since I purchased alway kept clean.
I found out the Technican was a young starter mechanicwho had hiswisdom teech removed the day before. What in tarnation was he doing at work the next day and how did I end up having him work on my car.
I returned with the leak , it seems they say I had alot of sludge in the belly pan that they cleaned up BS!!!! They tighten the plus they left loose.
Next time I will be doing the service my self.
This is not an attack on good trained Mercedes-technicans. Only ones that should not be near a car.

Thanks Bob,
I always do other services which I can do it from top. This is the service that requires to lift the car. I don't have that type of facility and I haver to let someone do it. At first I was thinking to use topsider but later think about the filter also have to change and let others do it. I regretted.
