TO MUCH FOR THIS CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just got off the phone with the dealer.

2002 ZTW w/ Zetec (SPI is less)

Alternator $260
Idler Pulley $30
O2 sensor $168
Serpentine belt $45

$500 to install? Even at dealership flat rate $90 an hour, the flat rate is 3.0 hours, another .5 if your alternator bolts are seized. So 3.5@$90 +PST+GST= $360.

These prices are on a Zetec where the labour is higher than the SPI

So if you paid $1653 for a repair that the dealer would or should have charged $935 taxes in, you need a new mechanic.
TEAM PITA: Don't settle for a wannabe, only accept the real deal.
