My understanding is in most jurisdictions, if you pay for a repair, you can request the old parts back (other than if there is something like a core charge/credit or if there is a safety/environmental reason not to do so, for example like spent AC refrigerant). The individual technicians working however may not know this however, especially if most of what they do is warranty work (where they always take back the old parts), and it may not apply to all jurisdictions (look up your local laws).If I’m paying for replacements I damn well want the ones I paid for when I bought the car. If they’re going to do them under warranty then I’d expect them to take them back.
