[quote=Anonymous]I chose a mechanic to do some routine maintenance on an Audi, and they did it about 2 months ago. Last week, my car started overheating and I got all sorts of error messages. I did some online research, which indicated it was the thermostat that was broken. I took it into the mechanic, and they said it's not the thermostat, it's a bad fan that needs to be replaced. So I agreed to let them replace the fan ($$). They called me today after replacing the fan and said that when they went to do the diagnostic, the car overheated again, and they are now saying the thermostat needs to be replaced (more $$). What are my options here? I do not trust this mechanic anymore. I don't want them touching the car further. I've never had an experience like this before and don't know what, if anything, I can do. Even if I decline to have them replace the thermostat, I'll owe them money for the fan that apparently didn't even need to be replaced. Help.[/quote]
