Why quotes vary so much
- • Labor rate: $85–$200/hr depending on your region and shop type (independents average ~$140 nationally; dealers run higher) — the same job can differ by hundreds in labor alone.
- • Quoted hours vs book time: the most common padding trick is quoting more hours than the industry flat-rate guide calls for.
- • Part quality: OEM parts cost more than aftermarket; ask which one is on your quote.
- • Your specific vehicle: some engines bury this part and legitimately take longer.
