It seems to me that you paid $200 or more over what you should have as I really cannot see an external fuel pump taking more then 2 hours to replace. However, they could be calling the other 1.5 hours diagnostics which in all fairness could have happened.

They certainly should have given you a break down on the invoice and when they called for authorization.

And of course, if they did not, you should have asked for a price before you approved the work.

There are plenty of Mercedes Benz mechanics here in DFW. I hope that you can find one that you can trust.
