[quote=Anonymous]To the mechanic who is a small business owner - I value your input and would enjoy an "Ask Me Anything" post from you! OP, I recently had brakes and rotors done, and they were expensive like yours. I googled the OEM part prices listed on invoice and didn't notice a significant markup, and I didn't want cheap brake parts. The labor was not cheap, but not like going to the dealer. I go to a shop that is specialized and knowledgeable about the car brand and do not trust shops that are not bc I figure it could create more problems. I also pay more for oil changes there. If it were my Ford or Chevy, I would be more flexible. As far as DIY, spouse has done brakes, oil changes, spark plugs. It is do-able but not always ideal (except from a savings standpoint).[/quote]
