I don't know too much about cars, tbh.
When I take my vehicle in, I run the projected labor and cost estimate by the ex-husband if I feel uneasy or skeptical about what they're telling me. He either says "It's fine. Let them do it." or "No, fuck that. They're ripping you off. I'll fix it". I give him the money to purchase whatever is needed to make repairs, cook him whatever he's got a hankering for, and he fixes it.
If I'm dating someone I ask them, of course, because men seem to be a tad touchy about those sorts of things. Luckily, all the fellas I've dated happen to be familiar with cars.
I "fixed" a co-workers car the other day. It wouldn't start and I keep an automatic jumper in my trunk.
Took under a minute.
She was amazed--acted like I was some sort of brilliant, mechanical genius and tried to hug me afterwards.
I bet I could've charged her 50 bucks for "labor" if I'd wanted to.
