Cool

Internal repair order for used car department from service department as I was picking up the 2004 in sig is kind of a hint that the service department is getting ahead of used car although it could be the "by-the-book" time
standard.


Pricing might be different than to public since it was internal.

Was this the first time the dealer's mechanic had ever done a brake job?

Cheers,
