Personally, I would take it back until they get it right. I wouldn't consider waiting 2 hours forever..lol. Have you downloaded the MS3 shop manual to see if it can help you out?
Is it worth going back to the same shop?
i have another thread about my woes with my car, but the autobody shop i sent it to is giving me even more headaches.
i just want everyone's opinion if it's even worth sending it back to them. After a month i get the car back and the steering wheel wasn't centered and the right headlamp motor wasn't working.
i took it back and they centered it and the headlamp motor works, but detailing it last night i noticed that the cut off on the headlights aren't as aligned (the right side is below the left). Also i noticed that they didn't install the windshield gutter so it was flush against the window. Also while trying to adjust headlight level myself I noticed that the new headlamp's motor is still whirling 1-2 seconds after the left one is done. WTF. that can't be right.
Of course I don't want to go back if i can just do it myself because I hate to deal with them anymore. However, since they lost my all weather mat i have to eventually go back to pick them up. Should I have them address all these issues again? They take FOREVER. I had to wait 2 hours to get the steering column centered (maybe it was a wheel alignment) and the headlamp motor working.

yea i'm awaiting replies on the exterior lighting forum trying to figure out how to do this on my own.
it's just annoying i have to point out each thing wrong. they don't go that extra mile and make sure everything is perfect.
