Do we Discuss prices on maintance here?
I went to mavis and they quoted me 559.99 plus tax on a new brake caliper and for my two rear wheels. I ended up paying 512 with 8% tax included. I am wondering if it's possible to get them done cheaper for my front wheels.
labour time for an 08 impala both rear calipers, including bleeding the system is 1.8hrs
caliper costs maybe $100 each depending on the quality, door rate maybe $120/hr.... i've seen $150 hr in the city.
1.8 hours x $120hr door rate = $216 + $200 parts x 8% = $450
not that far off. shop around for door rates; call different shops. try rockauto or a1autoparts for online parts quotes
labour rate for the front calipers is the same: 1.8 hours
