Hi:
I'm new and could use some help.
I recently got an estimate to replace the front Air Spring and its valued at $990. The same mechanic replaced the left Air spring approx a year ago and he charged me $1025 for the part.
Just yesterday I was browing the web and found the same part from Arnott for $398. I've found another mehanic who will install it for $300 labor.
What do you think?
Is Arnot genuine?
Thx - "broke from repairing this sweet ride"

Arnot is better than Genuine... Life time warranty if I recall correctly. Seriously $300 labor for that work.... Maybe I need to get back into fixing vehicles for a living... It is bad enough what the Dealerships charge...

If it is flat on one bag, I would not recommend driving it at all, since the pump will constantly attempt to air it up.. which in turn will burn the pump up.

Hi:
I'm back again with a new issue, my brake light just went on and when I start the car I get the message to replace brake pads. I shudder at the thought of going to a dealer to get this fixed. Is Arnott a good option?
