What's the most work you've had done at the dealer in one trip?

Just curious....we'll see if I'm the champ or not

Just got my car back for the following warranty work:
1. Drivers side window rattle
2. Rear view mirror rattle
3. Steering wheel column rattle
4. CD player/changer "CD ERROR F0" problem
5. Creak from sunroof when tilting
6. Excessive road noise from front tires
7. Click from rear axle issue

All fixed under warranty

What's the most work you've had done at once?

While in the waiting room, brought my laptop and generated a couple quotations
for my customers and checked some emails, called a couple of my clients, etc.
It was almost as if I was at the office... free fresh ground coffee too.

For my G35? Only 7500 miles, but the most I had it in for was an oil change & the sunroof squeeking problem.

For my Benz, I dont even want to get into it. Oil Change, A/C Fix, Steering Wheel vibrating, one of the power seat buttons went dead, Stereo system would crap out at times, and a bunch of other electrical problems they found that I didn't even know about! Rock solid engine and transmission, but the electronics on the Benz are garbage.

oops you're right, they didn't fix that. They told me that my wheels were "slightly bent" and that it was "normal because they are soft wheels" So all I can do is shell out to repair the wheels or get diff ones. Which is annoying since I've barely hit any potholes since I've had my car...

A new battery is $80-120 at Sears with warranty. Take it to the dealer, they can tell you in 30sec if it's your battery or the alternator. I would say it's too early for your battery to die, but you never know.

The most work I've had done at the dealer...

1. Oil change
2. Driver side Crawford cat rattle

My face caught on fire while I was driving once. I'm thinking about bringing in the G to see what they say.

Something else could be wrong causing the battery to die, so just swapping it out might not fix it. I would recommend brining it into the dealership.
