This may not help but I work for a company that remanufactures automatic transmissions (european), turbo chargers (all) and cylinder heads (all). We'll also take in almost any repair job. Our hourly rate is $85 :yikes: The John Deere dealer down the street gets $75. We are located between NYC and Boston. About 10yrs ago the NYC car dealers were getting $75 don't what they are now.
