Hey guys i think im getting bent over by MB

Brought the E300 into the dealer to have the glow plugs changed. 600 dollars to change the plugs and then they had the never to charge me 300 dollars to extract the one that THEY broke off in the cylinder. So two questions. Where can get glow plugs so i can avoid this in the future? And how is it my responsibilty for them twisting one off?

LightMan and I here that all the time on the MercedesShop forum. Read up on that forum regarding glowplugs and you'll see they were actually pretty nice.

Then again, LightMan just changed his glowplugs, so look for that thread too!
