[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think brake jobs are one of the things they overcharge the most for at a shop. Why, because anyone can watch a 15 minute YouTube video and replace their own brakes. I can understand complicated jobs where a lot of things need to get removed to access something, but not the typical brake job costing what they do. Also as someone who has done some DIY parts cannon work, diagnosis is not as simple as many think. I would pay for diagnosis and if the repair cost is too much, I can take that knowledge given to me and do the repair myself rather than risk repairing the wrong component because im going by a $40 OBD scanner that gives me a vague idea of what's really wrong.[/quote] I always paid to have brakes done, because of the asbestos involved. Probably newer brake pads don't use asbestos anymore though, do they? Off to search on that topic. [/quote]
