| Dishonest shops So today I was driving down highway 7 out in the Eatonville area(a super fun drive) and all the sudden my car just dies. Im like holy crap!!! At first I thought it was just my blaster coil which did the same thing a few weeks ago.
But after closer examination, I couldn't find anything wrong, I had fuel pressure, all wires were still hooked up, the coil was fine, and I had plenty of oil. So I had to have Eatonville towing come pick me up, I got a free tow since he was an hour late.
So I finnaly get to town, and there is really only one somewhat repuatable looking shop. I drop it off there. The next day I get a call, he tells me the estimate. He says that I blew one of my injectors and all 4 plugs are shot. He wants $400 to fix. He wants $179.00 for one stock gsr fuel injector, and 3 hours labor total to fix! Have any of you ever installed an injector? it takes like an hour to do all four!
So the place is called "Auto Werx" up in Eatonville. Dont ever go there, you'll get jacked. I could have it towed to my regular shop, but its like 150 bucks to have it towed there. So my hands are tied on this one. Im pissed!!
We should make a list of reputable/non-reputable shops to go to. I think a thread like this could be worth something to us all.
