Meineke Car Care Center

Brought my car in to have the water pump replaced.  Got a call every hour or so for something that would cost more money.  Then got THE call.  Blown head gasket.  Estimate went from $500 up to $2000.  I had no signs of a blown head gasket.  Compression test was fine, never overheated, ever (not even once), no loss of power, no white smoke.  Decided to have them just put it back together so I could get a second opinion.  At first they told me it was definitely blown.  When I picked it up, the owner said it "possibly had a leak".  So, either my car magically regenerated its own head gasket or someone lied to me.  Also, I can't prove it, but I'm 90% sure they put oil in my radiator to make me think it was a blown head gasket.
