there's another sensor as well that needs changing but they can't be THAT expensive can they?

on a toyota yaris which is why the engine light keeps coming on

it doens't do anything, it just lights up and the car carrys on are normal

One bolt and a wiring plug and they want to charge him £150 labour

And he's going to pay it as "it's a main dealer so they know what they are doing"

jamie's

what makes him think that a main dealer knows what they are doing?

£140 to hook it up to diagnostics
£20 for the sensor, fitted.
£140 to hook it up to the diagnostics just to make sure it was the correct diagnosis..

Im sure when I used to work for toyota nearly 6 years ago it was 80 quid labour then.

but they've already charged him £60 to hook it up to find out why the light is on, so why would they charge him again to make sure it was fixed?

surely they wouldn't have fixed something and then made sure it was fixed afterwards
