Answer by Christopher Dahlen
Go to an auto body shop and ask them to give you an estimate. You can’t just throw out a number someone tells you it should cost. You need paper work.

My first question is, are you sure the radiator was bad in the first place? And, how reputable is the shop were you took the car?

Are there any other considerations in requesting repair? The van has 155,000 miles.

Answer by Will S
I been in the business a long time and that seems high for a used transmission installed. I would call two or three shops and get ball park prices for a rebuild, at least in Az you could get a rebuild for 2500-2800 so I would personally spend a little more and get a rebuilt one, make sure you get at least 1 year 12,000 mile warranty parts and labor or go somewhere else.

Question by tampa: I am thinking of buying a Honda Goldwing. 1986 low miles owned by an older repair guy. What do you think?
Will not be used for regular transportation. Also are motorcycle training schools worth the time????
Thanks for the input. I now own the machine. It is in a different state and I will not see it for a couple of months. I am going to sign up for the MC school. Riding alot 15-20 years ago then some as of late is not sufficient. I have found out that everything that can be done to the bike has been done mechanically and that there has been lots of cosmetics. Whee!!! Again thanks.

Question by xtraluvly03: How do I repair this “bar” or rod related to my powersteering in my 1990 Honda Accord?
It is located beneath my altenator and alters the powersteering. I do not know what the exact name for it. So, I do not want to go to a mechanic because they will rip me off and charge me $ 50 to put a bar back in place. The last mechanic to replace my altenator showed me what it was and put it in place for free. But he charged me $ 150 to replace my altenator so he ripped me off, I know. Does anyone know what this bar/rod is called and can I fix it myself without bothering my altenator? How much will it cost to repair it?

Best answer:

Answer by Michael B
It sounds like a support arm that stabilizes the pump, and should be “bolted” somewhere…it shouldn’t cost that much.

Why do you think $ 150 is a rip off? The alternator itself may cost $ 100, sometimes more…
