What's a reasonable cost for a break line fix on a 96 Honda Accord?
I have a 96 Honda Accord that has a pinhole in one of my rear break lines. How much would the part be to replace the line, and how long would it take a mechanic to fix it? I prefer to shop locally, so I would like to go to a mom and pop repair shop. What would be a reasonable estimate to replace just the faulty line, and what would be reasonable it I just replaced both back lines, just in case?
Take a person 15 min to change it out then a few more to bleed the system properly.
Most shops would charge you for about a hours worth of time.
The brake line normally is only about $15 unless you just replace it with some universal lines and fittings, can normally get that for a little cheaper.
Good estimate would be about $150 for most shops and thats with them buying the parts.
Or you can just do it yourself, its not hard, just swapping lines then bleed the air out.
No way to tell. Brake lines are strictly time and material. There's no flat rate to guide the shop. However long it takes, that's how long it takes. Each line has to be bent to match the factory.
They sell brake line by the foot so it depends how long of a piece you need! Buying the line and putting it on and bleeding the brakes, your looking around $150 or so but it depends how much the garage charge by the hour!
Plan on having every one of them replaced. By now they're all rusty as heck on an 18 year old car.
- Is $715 reasonable for my repair? Due to my tires wearing out faster than usual on my 97 Honda Prelude my mechanic is going to charge me $715 for a wheel alignment, replace my inner tie rods and installing adjustable ball joints. For the price of an wheel alignment is $80 and the ball joints they are ordering are around $100 apiece the inner tie rod price I'm not sure but I assume there about $30 each one. So I'm basically getting charged $400 in labor? Is this right?
- How can i fix this Honda Dio? Can i fix it by my own? I wanted to check the front brakes, si i started and raced it holding the front brakes alone. My fingers sliped from the break and I crashed my Dio straight to the wall. Reffer the picture.
- I need to find a part for my Honda ex1000 generator. I can't seem to find a part for a reasonable price or even the right part I have a Honda Generator and I need to buy a carburetor. I can find a lot of different ones online but I only find One for the Model I have. It is 80 bucks. I see a lot that look the same and I would like to know how to find one that is cheaper. I have looked for hours and can't find one that is cheap like the others. The part number is 16100-ZC0-015. Does anyone know how I can find a variety to choose from or do I need to get the honda brand carb?
