Almost positive I got ripped off. I would love the mechanic shop to refute what I am about to say…read morewith transparency and show me that, no, I did not, in fact, get ripped off. Car: 2002 Toyota Corolla LE, 160K miles, 1 previous owner. Work done: oil leak, very severe $0 remove and replace valve cover gasket w/ valve cover replacement and PCV valve and engine degrease. leaking down the engine onto subframe components and dripping onto the floor. valve cover appear degraded from electrolysis. $1,456.32 remove & replace both CV axles. they have torn inner joint boots and leaking. $1251.29 coolant service -- had the wrong coolant in the car. how dangerous is this? $172. tune up: replace spark plugs, air filter, perform throttle body service, relearn idle, reset ignition and injection adaptive memory if done with the valve covers. $275.87. feels like the biggest rip off % wise lol total cost $3155.48. "Based on published repair-cost aggregators for a car in your Corolla's class, here's how each line item stacks up. Take this as a directional read, not a precise verdict. Valve cover gasket, valve cover replacement, PCV valve, degrease -- $1,456.32. RepairPal's own estimate for a 2002 Corolla valve cover gasket job (parts + labor) is roughly $344-$464. Swapping in a whole new valve cover instead of just the gasket adds maybe $100-$200 in parts, the PCV valve is a $10-$25 part, and an engine degrease might add another $75-$150 in labor. Even generously, a fair all-in price lands around $550-$750. What you paid is nearly double to almost triple that. Both CV axles -- $1,251.29. Corolla-specific estimates put a single axle (parts + labor) around $260-$400 depending on whether reman or OEM axles are used, so both sides together is typically $500-$800 at an independent shop, maybe pushing toward $900-$1,000 at a dealer with OEM parts. $1,251 is on the high side -- probably 30-70% above what I'd expect from an independent shop. Coolant service (wrong coolant found) -- $172. This one looks fine, even good. General coolant flush/service pricing runs about $150-$500+ depending on the shop, and $172 is at the low end of that. No red flags here. Putting it together: a reasonable independent-shop total for all four jobs would land somewhere around $1,600-$2,050. You paid $3,155.48 -- roughly 55-95% more than that. Most of the gap traces back to the valve cover job and, to a lesser extent, the CV axles; the coolant service and tune-up were priced fairly." Hopefully I can at least help one person in the future avoid getting ripped off like I did!

We met Manny who went over the details of what was needed in terms my father understood. He gave us a quote that was below another quote we had received in NY. We scheduled the job and went home. My father ended up getting a fair offer on a trade in and ended up buying a new car. I am giving this business 5 stars because of the time Manny spent with us, and the fair quote we received. Many other businesses would have tried to take advantage of the situation. Manny did not and for this he's earned my trust.
