As you are finding out,car salesmen will tell you just about anything to sell you a car,but if they have to fix something,dont really want to do that.The shop and the salesman seem to belong to different organizations.One thing that could help if you have time to do it is stay right there with it.I would be out in the shop watching them,yeah they probably will tell you some lie like you cant be out there because of insurance or something,but I would tell them thats how its going to be,Im watching,(I once was an ASE certified mechanic and had the patches on my sleeve)so you might as well get over it and fix it.You might get the stuff you know about fixed that way.Anything else that shows up after that is probably going to be on you.Plus they might figure out they arent going to be able to lie to you about it so they might as well fix something.I have noticed on friends pickups that I drove during harvest,check engine light is on all the time.When it would rain they would try and fix it,but it was still on.My own pickup had the check engine light on and went to parts store and they check it,change a sensor,light goes out for a couple of weeks,then comes back on.It can be frustrating.A motor with over 100,000 miles on it like that might need the intake cleaned out,and new EGR,new catalytic converter,all kinds of sensors to make the check engine light stay off.It would be hard to say what it would take to fix it.
