You did not say where you are located, however, I would encourage you to use the shop forum to find a good mechanic for it. Under the very first page of Mercedes-Shop, look down and there is a forum entitled "good MB shops". Go to this forum and type in your location for a search. Check out the results.

Make sure you understand what you have purchased. |
I sometimes "speed read" and miss things too, or is it that my eyesight is getting worse.
