Still cheaper than other shops though
I talked to some others on the forums such as ps2cho about it, and seems mr.mb is overrated for certain things

So, did you ask for an estimate and then, without your authorization, the shop doubled the cost the repair?
or, much more likely:
The shop found other issues and parts needs and you authorized the additional expense.
It's a 20 year old car with very high miles, what exactly was the shop supposed to do about your leaks? If they told you not worry about it them don't. Because I'm sure you would expect a concourse restored automobile if you had them fix the leaks by the tome of your comments.
