Comment on She was churning plastic

Regarding “the mechanic always rips me off” - find a good one. When the muffler was loose because of a broken hanger the garage called me, told me and asked me if they should repair it by the book (switching out an 800 Euro part) or just weld the hanger - that would be “The OEM doesn’t allow it, so less OEM warranty, but it’s only Eur 10.”
They basically asked me to allow them to ignore idiotic OEM instructions. (Yes it was an “official” garage by the OEM)
