Stealers screw up stuff too.  All in all, I've had better luck with independent shops than stealers.  But yes, independent shops screw up stuff awfully, and often.   THat is why I learned I had to do it myself or do without. Exception being Bosch authorized service centers, but I only used one, and since he owned MB cars and had NO employees, all was good.

Bingo. 30 years ago, I'd farm out jobs that required factory tools, and 
invariably they'd charge me to mess it up worse than I could have done myself. 
I learned not to let others touch my cars.

Looking back on it, if the issue is not having a factory tool, I should either 
buy/make the tool or take it to the dealer. My mistake was taking factory tool 
work to independent specialists.
