Mechanic pricing usually breaks into two separate parts: labor (either a flat rate for the job or an hourly shop rate) and parts (OEM vs. aftermarket, which can vary significantly in cost). A proper written estimate should itemize these separately rather than giving one lump number, so you can see exactly what you're paying for.
How much should a diagnostic visit cost?
It varies by shop and by how involved the diagnosis is, but a standalone diagnostic (not tied to an obvious repair) commonly runs somewhere in the range of $75–150. Always ask upfront rather than assuming.
What's the real difference between OEM and aftermarket parts?
OEM parts are made by (or for) the vehicle's original manufacturer and match factory specs exactly, usually at a higher price. Aftermarket parts are made by third parties — quality varies widely, from essentially equivalent to noticeably worse, so it's worth asking which brand they use for a given part.
When is it worth getting a second opinion?
For anything expensive or non-urgent — transmission work, major engine repairs, anything over a few hundred dollars — a second estimate costs little and either confirms the first shop was fair or saves you real money.
