Re: Milano driveshaft

To Mark Denovich, Jeff Greenfield, and others who responded to my earlier 
post. 
I hope that I didn't come off as anti-Alfa mechanic. That was not my intent. 
Not in any terms. Mostly I was trying to GIVE praise to the people who post 
the technical tips that make Alfa ownership and maintenance one helluva lot 
easier. 
Secondly, I wasn't insinuating that any mechanical job is easy. I used to own 
a small engine and lawnmower repair center. I know what its like spending 
hours on making something work properly, but only being able to bill one to 
two hours flatrate. Frustrating to say the least. The only thing that bothers 
me about some of the owners bragging/ complaining that a fairly simple job 
costing an arm and a leg. Then thinking that this seems normal. I know of one 
man who "used" to frequent a shop for his American cars. He recently bought a 
Milano and took it in for a timing belt change. ( he is experienced in 
foreign cars also) When the bill was given to him, he noticed that the labor 
rate was quite a bit higher. He was told that the rate was different due to 
the higher technology of the Italian cars.  Like I said before... he used to 
go to him.
