[QUOTE="henkswart, post: 884786, member: 1994"] This has been my philosophy too. All my vehicles are serviced by the corresponding agents, but I always shop around when larger items are to be done, e.g. brakes, clutch etc. That being said, the rub lies in finding someone you can trust to do the work satisfactory. Here I have found word of mouth to work well in asking others for references and experiences. As an example, some years ago the reverse light switch on my Focus needed replacing. Ford quoted me a stupid price at the time for labour. Whilst having my brake disks replaced at another private shop, I mentioned the switch to the mechanic, who claimed it was a quick job - if I brought the part, he would fit it while the car was on the ramp, no charge. I have had a number of such similar experiences. Hope you are able te recoup some cash with the shot turbo. [/QUOTE]
