    At $105 to $145/hour in my area at a dealership, and since it takes a mechanic at least 10 minutes to get the work order then find the vehicle, that's already exceeding the price of a set of pistons plus the tune up - but of course the entire car only cost $295 and the average weekly wage was $10 - $15.
