Given the shaft by the indy for the last time

[willrev]

Either I will perform all future work on my car or the dealership will do so. I have a very reliable mechanic at the local dealership and they have never overcharged me.

I got tired of the rattle in my rear passenger door. Same door that the INDY had fixed the plastic guide on the window regulator and charged me $100. I disassembled door today. All clips on panel were good. Then I discovered his crappy work. When he reinstalled the window regulator, he allowed the teeth on the motor to get misalined with the other teeth and thus the mouning holes for the regulator did not match up with holes in the door. Were about 1/4inch off. He forced the bolts into the regulator anyway!!!!

The bolts had worked loose and the regulator was banging inside the door. All is good now. That was the most annoying DIY repair I have ever done on the 82 300sd.

Stay away from the Mercedes/Volkswagon mechanic in Wilson, N.C. He does shoddy work.
