People just do t have any concept of the prices of the tools, diagnostic equipment and what ever over head cost you have I say that was a pretty good price to retrieve that code actually

I live next to a mechanic and he also pays hundreds of dollars each time he has to stay updated to certain makes and be allowed access to their diagnostics.

very very very rare to have a code just be a specific part

Kewlair MobileWurx :
I sold parts for 8 years. I ALWAYS told every person that reading a code is a FIRST step in the diagnosis process. I would never sell parts just off a code alone.

A lot of people complain about this new electronic age of vehicles. Not me, with proper maintenance I'm getting over 400,000 miles out of mine. Couldn't do that 30 years ago.
