He also got married and took a 2 week honeymoon.

Also wanted to give me a cost estimate before he started and that took a couple of months before he had time to put that together.

They did replace the steering rack and I drove it for a week while the Cayenne was getting a wheel fixed.

It's not that the car doesn't run, it just uses a quart of oil for every tank of gas. Bad enough that it was starting to foul plugs.

Subjective POV having no idea what your relation is to these guys:

I don't stand for getting jerked around and would have told them thanks but no thanks when it took more than a week to get an estimate.

He's clearly not serious about running his business and give little to no fuchs about customer satisfaction.

That is a lot of oil burn.

I consulted with an expert on my previously discussed detonation issues, he saw the plugs and told me they were oil fouled.

Apparently my little oil burner burns enough to kill plugs in the course of 15k miles. I've still yet to install the new ones to see if that truly was the issue, doing it tonight.
