If I listed everything it would read like War and Peace. But this is a pattern I've been through before. I'll go along, need a few repairs or things replaced and then it's everything at once. I couldn't tell you the last time that I had my brakes done that's how long ago. So no surprise. But it's only the rear brakes. And the timing serpentine belt will need replacing. I've been expecting that. Front end work, I've been expecting that, too. I may stay with these people. They were recommended to me. My regular mechanic is impossible to get work done the same day. They are so busy that there's never any place to leave your car. One of the things I had done yesterday was fluid replacements--brake, power steering, transmission, radiator flush plus an oil change. When in the past I've brought my car in to my regular mechanic I always add "check fluids". I've assumed that if one of them needed replacing that that had been done. Apparently not. Cathy and Shiloh
