Message: <blockquote data-quote="bmwcar" data-source="post: 230377" data-attributes="member: 2286">i normally expect the mechanics to make about 20% profit on parts and charge a nominal labour charge....... i roughly know what the prices are and do not mind a 10 to 20% mark up as the full accountability lies with the workshop....by getting the parts myself, i might save RM100 to RM200 on average but its the hassle of the multiple trips. Furthermore, if the parts are wrong or there is some issue with it, the mechanic can blame the parts....... If it was bought through the mechanic, then 100% ownership of parts quality and installation lies with them....</blockquote>
