Do you folks have recommendations for a good mechanic in Seattle area?
I got a EVAP small leak code and I took my 2014 to the dealer (out of warranty miles, extended warranty does not cover this sensor) and it turns out to be the CPV.
To my surprise, they want 250$ for the diagnostic (they say they did multipoint inspection and what not, unfortunately I have to pay that I think since they have already done it) and another 250$ for the fix. Spark plugs - 600$ break and coolant flush - 400$
Just ridiculous (Now correct me if the rates are reasonable; my previous vehicle was a Jeep TJ which was way cheaper to maintain). So I am going to take the truck from the dealer tomorrow. $250 lost but lesson learned! I can change the CPV myself, but want a trust worthy mechanic should I feel lazy about doing future maintenance myself.
Thanks!
