I did have the dealer do stuff for me because it was under the new car warranty but I refuse to pay the dealer a penny otherwise. I've owned the car for 10 years so it's not under warranty now.

I'm just quoting labor rates and hours for those that are interested in paying someone to do it.
Good stuff! It boggles my mind some of the estimates they give for work. I try to avoid the stealership at all costs. In some cases, I've noticed work that was done incorrectly or things that were overlooked.
