Nissan Altima: Got my starter fixed

Got my starter fixed
My 1995 Nissan ALtima was fixed but it cost me
48 bucks for tow
25 bucks for diag.
270 bucks for part
50 bucks for labor
Give or take, in the end it was 470 bucks, This seems like way too much of
an amount for a simple one hour job. I wish some law would be passed to
stop the price gouging automechanics have been doing the last couple o
decades or so. I would have done this myself but I do not have a jack or
stands and there are rules in my neighborhood about working on cars.

Re: Got my starter fixed
Sounds resonable.
You could of saved some $$$$ by replacing it yourself,
But, like you said, you don't have the tool or area.
And it would of taken you allot more time to diag the problem and get the
part and replace it.

How do you figure the Mechanic screwed you? Out of the bill, only $75 was
labor. Maybe you should be bitching about the high cost of parts instead. If
you had doen the job yourself it still would have cost you $318 for parts
and towing, assuming it wasn't dead in your driveway.

If
Cause the part was only 130 bucks at the parts store, so how could it cost
412 to have a shop replace it?
thats like over 100% markup on the part.

What brand starter did they install? A cheapo from Autozone is not nearly as
good as a factory unit, and less money. Better starters will cost more.
