On Tuesday, January 10, 2012, I took my car to this shop to have coolant flush done.  I called them on Monday prior to coming, and was quoted the price of $65.  When I came in on Tuesday morning, the mechanic still quoted the same price, however he had refused to provide a written estimate saying that I could trust his word.  In the hindsight, I think I should have insisted on an estimate in writing which I didn't.  

After the job was done, I was charged $86.  The mechanic explained that the difference in pricing was due to the fact that he had a trouble locating the plug, hence an extra charge of "a few dollars" according to him.  A few dollars translate into $20 which wouldn't make it or break it, however it doesn't feel good being taken advantage of.  The extra labor associated with the price increase wasn't specified on the Invoice.  

I think that the mechanic simply wasn't familiar with the kind of a car I had (Hyundai), but wouldn't admit it and charged me extra for his learning instead.

I wouldn't recommend anyone to use this shop.  Stay away from it!
