I'd like to give them the benefit of the doubt that they weren't trying to be criminal in their estimate to you but rather were just not paying attention to a minor detail -- like, hey shit4brains service writer pull the estimate on the correct series of car at least -- but you never know.
True dat.

But I called the service writer after I got the conflicting report form the Indy... And he still holds firm that the quote was good and my car in fact needs that part. ..........
