Indie Service Pricing?

Service B - $130 (minus any filters needed)

Full transmission flush and service - $240

Sound decent?

They also do a full inspection if you are under warranty to point out any issues the dealer needs to take care of.

That's very good price. A local shop here want to charge me $390 to change the tranny oil.

The price is good, I paid about the same for the transmission flush but the service B is cheap. I paid about $230 for service B !

All most too good, my DIY trans is $130.00 in MB fluid, gasket and filter alone.
And the B service hard to tell what is what there, but just parts and oil come to come to $180.00
So if the shop rate is $60 hr, it would be possible to do in 1 hour.
Sounds like a good deal make sure they use MB ATF for the 722.6 it cost $12-$15 a Liter at most dealers.

Oh yea our cars require the fleece filter $22 not the paper $8.
