View Full Pricing Guide →⚠️ Beware Overlap Labor
Dishonest shops often double-dip labor when billing multiple Op Codes. For example, if parts must be removed to access Cabin Air Filter Replacement, they shouldn't bill full Book Time for both codes.
Similar to engine filter upsell: often pushed during oil changes with a dramatic display of a dirty filter. Overpricing the part significantly. Also, some cars have two cabin filters and a shop might charge double unwittingly. Doing it far too often (cabin filters usually last ~15k miles/1 year unless environment is very dusty).
