i too had several bad experience with this shop. they will recommend you to change anything and everything. they use to be my family mechanic bout 15 years back so i trusted them. when i got my first car in college i start to keep receipt then start to notice that got patern.

so i ask the supervisor (skinny guy, hunch-back abit) why keep changing this part, he tell me some cock stories so i still not happy i confronted the big boss (this plump chinese man wearing glasses, wear different shirt compare to other supervisor) told him that been given bad and wrong advise, he can say to me "eh your father come here for many years adi, u think i want to bluff you ar". i refuse to pay, i left and went back to the place with all my receipt and my father as well.

and this time i took back all the receipt for both my parents car. when we got there the skinny supervisor start accusing me for not paying, then say i accuse him of lying etc. tha time i dowan talk to him any more we went straight to talk to the boss. fatty still can defend the supervisor and try sweet talk my father, say im small kid dono anything, got misunderstanding bla bla bla. i open all the file and receipt ask him see himself.

obviously the findings was really bad. we were changing so many things without knowing. after calculating the figure was in the 5 digits over the course of 5-7 years.

they offered my dad a cash settlement and we never went back there again. although i still see the same guys there when i passby.

really unethical business running there.
