Stupid Stealership!!!
Well I took my car in to the dealer today because of the MAF problem I was complaining about 2 weeks ago. My engine would always cut out under heavy throttle applications. As I stated in my previous posts my MAF was triggering my CEL light so they changed it out with a new one. The dealer just called today and told me that my engine would cut out because they replaced it with the wrong one! Stupid F**Cks! I hope that didn't F*** my car up in the long run because if it did they are going to pay!! 
Edit: Sorry if I wasn't being clear I was just really mad when I posted this. I basically had to take my car in twice for one stupid MAF problem. I took it in two weeks ago because the MAF was bad. They changed it out, then my car started acting up... so i take the car back again and they found out that two weeks ago they replaced my MAF with another non CLK MAF that's why my car was acting up. Also i'm not getting my car back until tomorrow

Isn't nice to know that a dealership is charging you $100.00 an hour for a "qualified" mechanic that can't identify the proper part # to install in your car.

Not trying to say they werent wrong but the tech can only go by what the parts dept gave them. There is no way the tech can know if thats the right part number since they look identical and the only difference is the part number and they supercede the part numbers so often to new numbers, you can't even match up the part number to the one you took out of the car because its hardly ever the same number when it is the right part. UNfortunatly the techs do not have any kind of computer to look up part numbers, this is strictly the parts dept job.
