I went to the NAPA once to buy spark plugs for my 87 300E and the guy behind the counter asked me, "gas or diesel"? I told him to think about it, 5 seconds later he said, "oh"....... DUH!

Way back when,,,I took my first car to midus to replace the break pads and rotors. I purchased the pads and rotors myself. .......... They kept my car for a week, blew my master cylinder, twisted my brake lines when installing, ripped out my pad wear sensor wires, Ripped out my ABS sensor wires, Smashed my undercarrage because they didn't know where to lift the car. And!!! Had the nerve to charge me $300.. From that point on, I have done all my own work on my cars.
