Anyone know about cost for car work?
    #25643434 -

Estimate for total cost, parts and labor,

New front wheel bearings,
two valve covers replaced,
coolant flush and two new hoses

Appreciate a rough estimate, thanks

$80 an hour + parts and a little mark up on that is usually par for the course around here.  Brand name places will try to dsysb though..

There should be estimate calculators for free online for the make, model and area.

You know aside from needing a press for the bearings possibly, everything else on that list could probably be knocked out some saturday in your driveway.  None of it is too complicated and you would save some $.

No one can accurately tell you this. It will depend to a great extent (probably by a factor of at least 3-4 fold) on year, make, model. Will also depend on whether you take your car to a ma and pop shop or the original manufacturer.

Good luck. I hate car repairs. I generally lube my ass before going. I find it is less painful that way. :buttsex:

2005 Monte Carlo ss supercharged

I considered it. I think the gaskets would be a pain in the ass, the coolant I've done before and would be easy, bearings would be new, maybe not too hard with my friends help, but it's winter and cold as fuck so I'm opting for just letting someone else deal with it :lol:

I think it's worth the cost

1 million dollars. every single time theres the slightest problem with any of the cars Ive had Im ALWAYS told "for the price to fix it you could replace the entire car" cars are an extension of the evils of the gasoline industry and they are made intentionally difficult to work on to make repair inpossible for the layman. My life has been stuck on permenant poor mode though so to be fair all my cars were less than 2k

Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

Each wheel Bering alone will probably cost $400 for parts and labor.

$200 for coolant flush and hoses.

$200 for each valve cover gasket replacement..

So probably $1400 or more realistically.

can you explain whats involved in doing those things to justify the 200 dollar price please? I want to be less mad. If I didnt have a child Id stick to the tricycle.

Each car’s different.  You could use youtube and see if a vid of someone doing what you need is up.
