Can some one give me an estimate to what it might cost for these services?

On a Honda Civic or something of the like...

oil change....

engine tune up....

brake job front disc....

front end wheel alignment....

this is for a school project

My daughter has to list each individual price. I always do it myself, so I have no idea how much it would cost to get it done at a shop.Can some one give me an estimate to what it might cost for these services?
The problem with answering this is that each shop will charge a different part and labor rate.



Your dealership will charge the highest, your local repair shops will usually be 5 to 20 dollars or so different from each other.



Your friend may charge you a 12 pack of beer for his labor on the tune up, disk brake replacement, and the oil change.



I do mobile auto repair and for the oil change, tune up, front brake job minus rotors I would charge 80 dollars for my labor plus parts.Can some one give me an estimate to what it might cost for these services?
The Honda service department will tell you their prices on these jobs.Can some one give me an estimate to what it might cost for these services?
oil change $20-50 depend on the oil you choose

tune up about $50+parts

alignment about $80

brakes $60-80+ partsCan some one give me an estimate to what it might cost for these services?
These are standard services any reputable shop can do, stay away from dealer shops, they have too much overhead, and the prices are outrageous!!

You can get a good idea over the phone, on most of these services.Can some one give me an estimate to what it might cost for these services?
A Honda Civic requires a four wheel alignment which would cost $80.00 if no other repair parts are required such as lower ball joints or any of the four front tie-rod ends.



Front disc brake job with ceramic brake pads and anything but off-shore brake rotors $250.00 - $350.00 depending upon the quality of pads and brake rotors.



Oil change with regular non-synthetic motor oil at any new car dealer $30.00. Add another $30.00 for full synthetic motor oil.



A tune up is a scary situation. Worst case scenario $250.00 -$500 if it required plugs, wires, cabin air and engine air filters, transmission fluid change. Add another $150. if the coolant needs to be flushed drained and cooling system cleaned. You may get buy with a set of factory recommended spark plugs if it's new Honda without ignition wires and nothing else needs to be done. In that case $125.00. These prices may sound steep but remember Honda's labor rate and the cost of late model Honda spark plugs.
