This was ridiculously expensive, I think! They replaced the coils and cleaned the fuel and replaced the sparkplugs. My beloved car is not even valued at that price. I had a really hard swallow with this. I was planning on getting it done for $400.0 to $600.00 but the engine started sputtering and dying on my way home in traffic rush hour. It was a harrowing drive to the Goodyear dealership, and I did it on credit, but all I can say is JEEZ and CRACKERS I did not expect that much for a tune up.

Long story short, recovered my Bronco roughly 2years after it got stolen. It was all perfect timing for him, I had too much going on and at risk that's why I took his deal. But after $2,500 I'm still left with my truck not running the way I think a 2500 dollar job result should be. I could only wish I had the place and time to do it myself. Hope I hear back from him if needed like I was promised. Well have to wait and see.

Feel ripped off.
Nearly $400 for a tune up. All that was done was a spark plug replacement and fuel induction service.
The breakdown was -
$77 for spark plugs (NGK Laser Iridium are $8 a piece at advanced auto parts, total $48 for my Honda Accord V6).
$101 for labor.
$80 for fuel system cleaner solvents. (Again, I question $80 worth of solvent being used for a cleaning....)
$101 for labor...again.
+Taxes and fees
Replacing spark plugs on a 2005 Honda Accord is barely a 30 minute job. Fuel induction service, another 20 minute job at most. So, got charged for 2hrs of labor, for a job that doesn't even take 1hr.

I feel completely ripped off but this is the going rate for 100K tune up because they need to change the timing belt and since they change the timing belt they go ahead and change water pump. This is the major part of the tune up...Oil change, spark plugs, valve adj, timing belt and other belts replaced, replace water pump.

Hourly rates for service is ridiculous. I'm a mechanic and I charge by the job not by the hour. The high cost at shops is due to overhead costs for al supplies, etc. Passed to cust.

Two Chevy Dealers estimated over 600 bucks for tune up, took it to Patricks in Youngstown, out the door for little over 200 bucks. Patricks is well known around Youngstown OH for quality work, at a great price, always packed. One plug had a miss, after tune up, different car, REALLY happy. You just have to be ready to leave car o-night. Plugs and wires, has that engine with three cylinders against the firewall.

1998 Honda Civic EX. Replaced spark plugs, wires, distributor cap, rotor, oil change w/oil filter, fuel filter, air filter, drained and recharged A/C. I would've done the PCV valve but I discovered it's location (right above oil filter, only accessible from underneath the car) after I did the oil change and I wasn't about to waste new oil to replace a $5 part. My car is happy and I enjoy working on it. A long time ago after paying Firestone $90 to replace a fuel filter in a 1995 Civic, I located the fuel filter under the hood and felt taken advantage of. At that moment I realized I am more than capable of working on my own car and vowed to complete maintenance within my ability. Plus there's nothing more satisfying than knowing the work got done and I'm in only paying for parts. Now I replace oil coolant lines and transmission coolant lines on both of my trucks.

Hours of Labor: ?
Shop: I went to a very trusted mechanic to get a quote and they want 325 for a standard tune up. I know they'd do a great job but asking for over 100 an hour is ridiculous! I'm making a little over 8 an hour and I'm supposed to pay a full check worth on something that'll take them a couple hours? I'll end up doing this with my dad because there is no reasonable way to justify this until I have a nice car and a career.

This is a quote I got from Firestone a couple days ago (April 10, 2015). I can't do that. That is about 3/4 of what I paid for the van about a year ago. I don't know if this included taxes. I was too blown away to think after hearing $809.

Tune up - 2004 Toyota Tacoma
Amount: $196.00 Posted by: Gnome

Hours of Labor: Shop: LT Transmission
Performed by my trusted mechanic. He had me go to the Toyota dealership myself and purchase the following:
-6 spark plugs
-air filter
-5 quarts transmission fluid
- spark plug wires
This all cost approx $116 at the dealership
Then he charged me only $80 for the labor.
Is $330 dollars ($212 in labor costs) reasonable for a "tune up"?
