  3. Under each item it said either "Comply with recommended maintenance" or "Part is close to end of useful life". He said the calipers and drums/rotors were rusted but could be driven on for a little while, but they should be replaced soon. Also, the wheel cylinder was the one leaking was was causing something else (I don't quite remember ... the shoe maybe?) to disintegrate so that needed to be replaced. An additional note: from comparing how it was driving before to how its driving now, the brake pedal had no pressure at all before, while it feels right now. Besides that, I don't really have any idea. I've always driven beaters in the past which I dumped when they stopped doing what I wanted them to do. This ad space for sale.

  8. it was 1200 for everything above plus hydraulics and rotors ... with just the cylinders, pads, shoes, and hardware, its about 700. i don't know how much of that is labor. This ad space for sale.
  9. Yeah, wheel cylinder. that's what he said. I really need to learn this stuff. thanks .... This ad space for sale.
  10. I don't know about the cylinder. He took it for a test drive, called me to tell me what was wrong, which I said ok, go ahead, and then I posted here and called back about an later at which point everything as tore down since they started working on it. I may very well be getting screwed. When he said what was happening, he said something along the lines of: The leak is disintegrating the drums in the rear (or maybe the disc in the front) so the other ones were taking the brunt of the pressure and were wearing down quicker. well, i really should have posted here before i gave the go-ahead. it's 79 an hour for brake and muffler work, 89 an hour for everything else. overall i don't really know ...

  11. Okay, I just called him back. He said it's the cylinder that's leaking (I believe he said it was the master earlier) and needs replacing. And the pads and shoes need replacing along with the brake hardware. I told him to hold off the other work for now. Everything's already been torn down so I'll get this stuff done and then take it to another shop I found reviewed on cartalk.com and get their opinion. What would the expected price be on clinder, hardware, shoes, pads? (This is Chicago so I understand that labor and cost are going to be a bit more expensive). This ad space for sale.
  12. it's an '01 Cherokee. I took it to Merlin's. They've been grinding for a few weeks now, so I know there's some damage done. The guy said there's a leak in the cylinder and some other stuff.... This ad space for sale.
  13. so i took my car in cuz my brakes were grinding. the mechanic said i have a leak in the cylinder which is causing the hydraulic system to fail and it'll cost me about $1200 to fix. does this sound excessive as if i'm getting screwed? This ad space for sale.

  19. That's the thing. First thing in my mind was fucking a ... i can pay off my debt, be completely clear. next thing that's in my mind is i know the guy and i know he runs a tight operation and just like the rest of us he works hard to make his business work. as much as karma seems to always fuck me regardless of whether i do the right thing or not ... i know this is something i couldn't live with ... goddammit ... if only, i believed in jesus, i could commit the sin and then immediately repent. edit to add: this isn't a religious thread ... its me a smartass ....

  20. From an old employer for a large sum of money, what would you do? It is undoubtedly a mistake, as you haven't worked for that company in months, but there's a signed check in your name for a couple thousand dollars. I know what the right thing to do is. What would you do? This ad space for sale.
