Let's play, "How much will the car repair cost THIS time?"
Sunday morning I was backing out of the driveway when I heard a loud "BAM!" Thinking I had run over a garbage can or something, I got out of the car and looked underneath.
Nothing.
Except now, the driver's side of the car looks like it's low.
I'm guessing rear spring.
One of my colleagues took a look at it, and he thinks it's the front strut.
I'm guessing $298.03.
Care to guess?

Unless it's for an oil change; and you don't know exactly, precisely what's wrong with it, always figure 500 dollars.
Hell, even for an oil change, figure 500 dollars ...
Local shade-tree mechanic? Maybe 250? Maybe 278?
After a visit to the friendly neighborhood garage, here's some more info:
Left rear spring "exploded", damaging the strut. Mechanic says replace both sides, so we are looking at: Two springs, two struts, two hours labor.
Feel free to revise your guesses. Upward.
Um yeah, you're not getting out of there for any less than $750-$900. That sucks!
