This man will try to take you for your last penny.
He claimed that my vehicle needed new coil packs and spark plugs because it had a rough idle. Funny it did not have a rough idle before I took it to him. $698 for the coil packs. $66 for the plugs.
He claimed that my fuel injectors were bad so he charged me to 'ohm test them". Looking under the hood and removing the engine cover I saw no evidence that he had tested them at all. $578 This price also included a can of Seafoam that you can buy for $6.99 that he labeled as a "fuel system cleaning procedure". Again, the vehicle had never run rough before taking it to him.
He claimed that I not only needed a new Crankshaft Position Sensor ($225) but also a new Camshaft Position Sensor ($198) as well.
He also claimed to have replaced the Crankshaft and Camshaft seals, I can find no evidence that these were ever changed either. Nor could he show me the old ones to verify that they had indeed been changed.
All this added over a quoted $768 timing belt replacement.
If you want to trust this man with your vehicle, it is on you for what you not only get charged, but what he may have overcharged you for.
You have been warned. Stay as far away from this man as you can.
