Lazy Idiots At Lube Shop Cut Hole In Audi S4's Aero Pan Instead of Removing It (http://jalopnik.com/lazy-idiots-at-lube-shop-cut-hole-in-audi-s4s-aero-pan-1748394648)
Coles Notes
1. I pulled my car into the right side service lane. While sitting in the car I felt a sharp jarring motion of the car.
2. A few minutes passed and the technician on the top floor came over to my car with two large jugs presumably filled with motor oil. He began pouring the motor oil into my car and stopped relatively quickly shouting below indicating the oil was overflowing.
3. I was asked to step out of my car so they could raise my car up in the air in order to remove the front (engine) belly pan.
4. After a few minutes the technician poured the rest of the oil into my engine.
5. I asked the manager to be certain all 1/4 turn fasteners were re-installed as they are quite expensive.
6. While standing in front of my vehicle I was told my car was completed and ready to leave. I was advised to start my car to check for oil pressure and I complied by starting my car and revving the engine lightly. I was advised I could drive my vehicle home.
7. I noted a 1/4 turn fastener located on the ground under my front bumper and brought it to the managers attention. I asked him to view the bottom of my car with him to inspect for further neglect.
8. Upon going into the oil pit and looking up at my car I located an exposed DSG transmission drain plug with wet transmission fluid leaked around it as well as on the lower chassis brace next to it. I noted the transmission aero belly pan had been cut into and destroyed.
9. I asked the technician why he did this damage and he claimed he did not. I looked into the garbage can down in the oil pit and found the two pieces of my car that were cut from my car in this trash can.
