I was quoted over $600 for a master brake cylinder. I thought those were $15 parts? Maybe I’m wrong or maybe it is labor intensive. would i be getting ripped off by paying this?
Oh and P.S. sorry to everyone who has seen my latest threads… I am surprised :fingban: didn’t happen.
that seems pretty high. My clutch was changed for around that much. I think that’s a tougher job.
Yeah that seems a little high, but if you cant do it yourself you are the mercy of whoever is doing the work.
calls for 1.7HR
std 65/HR shop rate
127+part
part=~70-120
if you shop around im sure you will find shops that will do it for much cheaper, as most shop do not go by hour
Yeah dude, I did mine in the driveway in the winter and it only took a couple hours start to finish. Whoever is charging you $600 is a fucking asshole.
Thanks I have a couple mechanics that I am going to get quotes from. Hopefully I find a good one!
i charge u 40 - 60
$50+part if it was me. 600 is an ass rape for an hr of work. not a little high but ridiculous. wouldnt even pay 200
