As far as I know, the guy wasn't "learning" on it. Being a Ford dealer (and the car being a Ford), I would assume that they had some experience.

My usual guy charges $35/hour labour, and is an ex Nissan tech. He took one look at it and said "no dice, take it to the dealer." I have read on this site how others have paid way more than me for the same job, so I feel good about it. That said, not something that I care to repeat.




Hi Phil
Got 2 things mixed up on that message. I was agreeing with you that it was good to take it to the dealership, as I would not want someone learning on it. I am sure the dealer would have some experience!
Thanks
Erik
