Repairs for a Quarter Of the Price!!

Went my LRS this morning with a CEL, and TPMS Light on. Threw codes for G3/3 O2 Sensor. So i go to the local All Imports parts counter, get the sensor, and an Air Filter for $150. Stopped by Discount Tire and got a free rebuild kit for my TPMS, then on to the shop. They installed everything, OTD, for $150!!!!! So for a $300 bill, I got my car back up and going for less than half of the price of the Stealership rate for the Sensor.
Mercedes Quote;
O2 Sensor $680
TPMS $225
Air Filter (Not Sure) but im happy!!!
Speed Automotive in Farmers Branch Tx if youre local!!! They are the Real MVP for the day!!!

Thanks for the Indy referral. I live not far from Farmer's Branch.

You can also check out German Car Care, on East NW Highway in Grapevine TX They have all the fancy MB diagnostic tools and software for more advanced work.

How did you swing a free rebuild kit for your TPMS at Discount Tire? I've bought so many tires there, I should get a Corporate Quarterly Finance Report.

No problem fam and thanks. I also use Auto Hans on Addison Rd. At Speed, Ask for Hameed, tell them Tony sent you. I have a 2012 E350 Panoramic with 160k on it. I’ve decided to pay it off and keep it. Im going with a grey scale camo wrap and I have black AMG wheels already. Gonna do the Young Dolph wrap with a twist. Leave the ground effects silver and mirrors, add a roof spoiler and mob. We are getting the GLE63 AMG Next year so this will be the Project toy car.
