I know this is a minor repair, but can you believe the dealership wanted over $700 to change both my pre-cat O2 sensors after the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) / Check engine Light went on?
It is a minor job, perhaps just a bit more complicated than changing spark plugs... But I was dumbfounded at how a few hours of my time (including ordering the oxygen sensor, buying the OBD2 reader, etc.) could equal about $500. Around $500/3 hours = $166/hr net.

I wish my hourly wage was equivalent to that.
they give you worse case estimates. Some people come in and their O2 sensor snaps off and they have to drill it out.....
