Fair enough. As I said, your guys money. Spend it where ever and however. And your implying I'm lying. Again, I have nothing to gain but more **** talkers. This really wasn't in my best interest to post. It was in the best interest of the community however IMO..

I'm not implying anything. Not knowing the truth does not equal calling you a liar. If that were the case, pretty much everyone on the internet is a liar, including me.
It's called deflection. I'm not playing your game.

one car at a time
Well I take my car to Serge / Benzworks and actually have had nothing but great experiences....
Based upon all of your other drama and user names, I can only believe your story to be false.
Everyone in southern California knows Serge knows the cars inside and out and is a stand up guy. Somehow though you seem to rub everyone the wrong way....

I'm really not backing down. I really was screwed. I am not imagining this. I am not out for blood. Stop trying to say it's more then what it is-- it isn't. And if it was your build and your review of a shop, I wouldn't be coming in with this "well we dont really know"... I couldn't make this up. I really just couldn't.

Yes I am insulting you. I'm glad you're not too dense to see that at least.
I defended BenzWorks with my experience first.
Then proceeded to poke fun at your judgement.
Its right, its not my car or my money or my build.
If it was, I would re-think my life, my money and my build.
Not attack those that tried to help me.
As for Flight55. Calling everyone else here a jock hanger with his 9 posts. LOL. Go back home and get in your gimp suit, your daddy is waiting. You arent helping OP with your banter...
Serge offered you his help with his number. Oh well, he tried. Ball is in your court again.

And what drama? What does the drama with Marcus and Dave, all those months ago have to do with this? Hell even any recent drama? Has ZERO to do with my build. Sorry for "rubbing" you and other members the wrong way /sarcasm

Not knowing the truth? Well if you think there is more too it, I am obviously omitting stuff which would totally redeem Serge (ie he fixed it and I am lying) or I am fantasizing the whole thing. I can't wait for tomorrow too, because I have the mileage recorded from the EV12 when I took it in. I am anxious to compare to what it had when I picked it up. I'm sure its more then a mile or two around the block "datalogging".
I'm really not backing down. I really was screwed. I am not imagining this. I am not out for blood. Stop trying to say it's more then what it is-- it isn't. And if it was your build and your review of a shop, I wouldn't be coming in with this "well we dont really know"... I couldn't make this up. I really just couldn't.

Continue on with your shop review.

Members are allowed to voice their experiences here. MBWorld is rather unique where we don't immediately close a thread but instead allow for proper dialogue when there is a member/vendor disagreement. Almost always the vendor and the OP in these situations come to an agreement and we move on.
What we will not allow is insults or any other terms of use violations. Cut the immature jabs back and forth as those members will be banned.

Well, myself, and everyone I know in the Benz community, respects BenzWörks. Serge has always been my go to guy for the last eight years in regards to anything Benz related, particularly items which require Mercedes expertise. I just had BenzWörks assist in my ABC delete, a feat few have attempted. I would not have started this project if it wasn't for my knowing Serge was the man to get the job done.
After seeing the OP's behavior recently in other threads, I would question both his professionalism and his credibility.

The op had a bad experience with the shop.
He has a right to voice his story/opinion, if anyone knows otherwise and were there throughout his experience every step of the way. SPEAK UP, but dont attack the op for his past encounters with some of you females. I can see to why some of you need tampons and are complaining about the OPs "behavior".

A lot of you people in here don't know ****. I've been with HPV12 numerous amounts of time to Benzworks for his E55 and his EV12. Serge always gave HPV12 the "run around" i.e. it'll be done next week, needs new water pump, ic pump is leaking. HPV12 always had serge's back for all the "haters" out there who talked **** on Benzworks. I know HPV12 personally and like I said, I've been there numerous times with story after bs story. I was there when the car arrived at HPV12's spot and ran like a Mercedes SHOULD (German Engineering at its finest) until Benzworks got ahold of it, then it became problem after problem and HPV12 finally gets the EV12 after more than a year? Comeon... I remember arriving at benzworks with HPV12 with the EV12 outside with about 6 people surrounded by it with the hood up and Serge showing it off. Didn't know this was a car show, thought it was a mechanic shop. Any "professional" mechanic would never do that for one, two any "professional" mechanic wouldn't have missing buttons on the center console, rubber on the rear fender from "testing" the car out to make sure it works properly or leaving bolts on the windshield from the E55 incident, that is very unprofessional and absurd. What's also ridiculous is Benzworks charging HPV12 thousands of dollars for problems that never occurred until they got ahold of the car, in the end, Benzworks is shady and only out for the money, doesn't care about the customer.

I believe this thread has possibly gone south, lets concentrate on the issue.

Are you getting emotional over the internet over someones demeanor towards others? I sure hope not. Refer to the tampon I spoke about.
Please. Lets stay on track and let the OP and Vendor figure this one out as VIC55 stated above and leave his past past "behavior" out of this one.
Hes posting for all of us to read, not be sabotaged by someones high estrogen feelings that happened on another post.
You can always go to counseling together with the OP at a later time and let him know what really tickled your fancy, like I tell a female in an argument, concentrate on the issue.
We are off track now.
