I'll meet deanyel halfway on this one.
Yes, a mechanic who wants to replace a throttle actuator ($$$), but doesn't even know what ASR is should raise a few red flags.
As far as earning college money? No way. Diagnosing ASR issues on older MB's
accurately, is
very time consuming. If I had to depend on ASR money to send my kids to college they'd both be attending Community College.
On the other hand, whomever pockets the mark-up on the price of the parts is definitely in good shape.
