I really don't want the dealer to do this. I'll ask for an experienced tech but even then, I'm not sure I trust them to do it. A friend of a friend worked at an MB dealership as a tech... with no experience or training to start. He wanted to be a detailer and they need more techs so he got co-opted. It made me realize how the people doing most the work on your car have no more training than you do. Your only hope it they have experience doing more than just your car, and that the experience developed good habits on not bad ones. That is why ISTA spells out the steps so anyone can follow them.
Great example, when I did my wife's X5 brake bleed, they left the inboard rubber cap off of one of the screws. All kinds of crude came out in the bottle. Sigh. |

Coils were a "since you are there" replacement |
