Funny how car maintenance works

I thought everything was based on a governed amount of hours for each fix. The price should not have jumped like that. It should be easy to quote. Look at the sheet... follow the line to transfer case... 8.5 hours (I have no idea, this is an example)... 65 dollars an hour (Once again... no idea.)... there - quote. Sounds like when they quoted you over the phone they didn't have enough info to quote you correctly.

At only 50,000 kms I can't even imagine what maintenance would cost $1200?!! I hope they gave you a list of what they did...what did they do?

Transmission flush, spark plugs, pcv valve, and transfer case. As far as I'm aware that's it. When I pick it up if there is anything else I'll fill you in.
