Right... the Saga continues!

Booked it for gearbox service at Mackies for today - gave them reg number, year etc, was quoted £155.40. Left the car today in the morning. Was told it will be ready by 2pm. Just received a call from John advising that he never seen such gearbox on Audi before as usually they are 5 speed. Well, I gave them the REG so they should have checked. They took off the sump and apparently cannot get to the oil filer. Extra cost for doing it would be + £260 on top of quoted £155.40 as apparently whey would need to remove the manifolds and cats?! So?! That is just ridiculous. Asked them to put it all back together and top up oil if required. Hopefully they are going to do it in a proper way and do not damage anything / nor leave it with too little oil! I am worried now...
