1500 mile courtesy service done

Took my CLS 500 in yesterday for this service. They changed a part in the transmission that would apprently fix the intermittent problems I had experienced. I don't know the name of the part since they failed to put it on my work order but the service rep said it regulates the amount of transmission fluid flowing through the system, among other things. Has anyone else had this done? Apparently this part was recalled by MB.
And check this out, for a loner they gave me a Honda with a bad battery and charged me $15 for it.

What was your intermittent problem with the transmission? Also, I thought the loaner car was free, not a rental car.

Once in reverse, it slipped and the car didn't move. Another time I stopped at a light but when it turned green the car wouldn't go. Both times I put it in park and then in R (and D) and the problem went away.
The loaner car WAS free, they charged me for its gas!!! I am not kidding.
