Re: check engine light came on
Oh, I don't know, I hate to second guess mechanics, and I don't know
how involved they got checking vacuum leaks possibilities, etc.
An oil change can edge on $30. Cleaning the MAF would probably edge on
a half-hour shop time. So, now you are talking $60-70.
Air Filter is no big deal, but you probably got charged a separate
charge for it, even though they basically had it out when they did the
MAF work -- so around $50 for that (just guessing that a ultra high end
filter would be $30). So, with tax, license, destination charges that
could be pretty close.
So, while it was no discount job, I can't say they took you to the
cleaners.
Of course, doing it all yourself, you would have hit about $30 (not
including your laborLOL).
