Formula, you must have gone to a dealership for that work. Every time I go for service they try to "upsell" me for some useless repair such as radiator flush, transmission fluid replacement, fuel injector cleaning etc, etc.
Recently, I needed brakes and rotors....they quoted $546.00 and I went to my local mechanic......same job just under $400. Same with an air filter.....Cantins wanted $45 and Irving charged me $25 for the same filter.
They told me I needed transfer case seals and I got a second opinion......they were not needed. They only "weeped" a few drops after towing my boat but were full and in perfect shape.
I don't mean to imply that they are dishonest. They are just trying to solicit work for the dealership and are charging top dollar.
I'm just going to get a second opinion any time I need work.
