Sad true!!! There are no more people interested in daignosing a sick car,just ones that are interested in collecting $$$,as much as possible.I always go out of my way to make sure that the customer(or myself) doesnt buy parts that he doesnt need.That is not the best way to make living,but it is what it is.That is the reason i dont run a shop anymore.If you have $2500+ monthly expenses in rent and utilities and 1 GOOD WORKER(now that sounds really funny if it was not tragic) you cannot afford to let any customer to leave the shop with a bill smaller than $500
But back on track,I am ready to bet a substantial amount that with 70 k miles both pre-cat 02 sensors are in great health,except if something really bad happened,but I dont believe so.
