AUTO SHOPS PISS ME OFF Options

[YellowTwo]

Why is it everytime I have a problem with my car it can never get fixed the FIRST time I go in? I don't get it. Isn't it there job to figure out what's wrong and how to fix it?

I just came back from a transmission shop because my auto tranny was having problems changing gears. They had told me I just needed a tune-up. I said okay go ahead and do the $230 tune-up.

There is no difference at all. The problem is still there. It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't live like 40 miles away from the nearest city. I don't think I've ever had a problem fixed the first time I brought it in someplace. The same thing happened when I needed a new bumper, they didn't wire the lights right. And when I got my sound system installed, I had to go back at least 4 times.

I'm just pissed off right now. And in the process I also forgot my gas cap at the gas station, which is 40 miles away.

My 3s-gte swap wont go over 4k RPM's... My mechanic that did the swap said its a turbo problem, and he originally said it was throwing out code 34 which is overboost. I checked the codes myself and there was no overboost code... it was an ignition code, and fixing the igniton problem (myself) only solved half the problem. So my mechanic not only cant fix the problem, but he just made up some engine codes.
