    If filing down a thread and putting in a battery is that dramatic for them, then my job as auto mechanic must be a pure action movie.

      To be fair if they messed it up it could have been an absolute nightmare in getting a suitable replacement. That's probably why they were so tense. That's just my opinion though.

    wait, so the only things wrong with it were minor damage to the wheel pin, a bit of corrosion on the terminals and a dead battery?
