So the check engine light came on in my car. I checked the engine, and it was still there. The dealership had its own opinion on what was going on in my car.
Apparently, I need the following: one catalytic converter and one secondary air pump. The combined total for this? $2,000. $900 of that is the air pump.
This doesn't make sense. I can get a new-to-me air pump for about $200. (I'm not worried about used parts. I have a 10 year old car. Everything on it is used. And honestly, I don't love the car enough to give it the very best. At this point, it's earned "good enough") And I can see the pump from under the car. It's not even hard to get to. The DIY guide online doesn't make it sound too difficult, either.
But there has to be a catch. There has to be. Either this dealership is Satan, or the job is a lot harder than I think it is. Only one way to find out.
