Notes: we would suggest that you replace the brake rotors versus having them turned. It's less labor, easier, and makes for less mistakes. Machined rotors, unless done by an expert, on a top-of-the-line lathe, don't come out very well, causing squeaks, vibrations...etc.
Replacing the rotors would add an additional $100. This additional expense may be worth it to avoid the potential problems mentioned above. |
Glossary of Terms:
Aftermarket: parts not made by the manufacturer such as Ford, Toyota, BMW ...etc.
MSRP: Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price
OEM: Original Equipment Manufacturer
TSBs: Technical Service Bulletins provided by the manufacturer (they are not recalls)
Flat Fees: services such as alignments that don't get broken down into parts, tax, labor
Miscellaneous Charges: these can include, but are not limited to shop supplies--rags, chemicals, hazardous waste disposal fees, waste oil ...etc. |
About our auto repair estimates: RepairTrust models established fair pricing practices (as outlined in its eBook Trilogy), and uses state-of-the-art auto repair estimating software and 20 years of auto repair pricing expertise to obtain the most accurate and fair car repair estimates.
Aftermarket part price quotes are based off premium parts, unless otherwise noted.
The labor rate defaults to $100.00 per hour, unless otherwise noted.
Estimates are dependent on customer-supplied information, and can not account for unforeseen circumstances.
High mileage vehicles often require additional parts and/or labor to complete repairs properly, thus estimates may need to be adjusted.
All estimates are subject to change without notice. |
