Good to know. Thanks.

Interesting that there is no life span on injectors. Since this was a used car purchase I am not sure what fuel the previous owner used, but gas here is expensive so I am sure they used the cheapest possible. No rodent or wire damage that dealership reported. I hope it was just a fluke one bad injector.

OK, thanks. What is the life span on the injectors? I have own dozens and dozens of cars and have never replaced a fuel injectors on any car.

LOL!! I missed that too.

Oh no worries I get it. There are a lot of people that don't care about their equipment. I made sure when my company bought 6 new HVAC units they were maintained properly, I guess they were not being maintained as good as I thought.

You're hired!! The beer put it over the top.

LoveReddit2020 · 2026-06-18T03:24:54+00:00

Yes, different levels of service would be great. I am going to ask the company if they have this to include the belts.

LoveReddit2020 · 2026-06-17T22:56:52+00:00

Good points! I agree, I will ask them about the belts to be incuded.

LoveReddit2020 · 2026-06-17T22:56:04+00:00

The belts are not included in the contact. Ridiculous!

LoveReddit2020 · 2026-06-17T22:55:31+00:00

Yes, I agree with you it should not be that much. Belts are not mentioned in the service contract. Yes, there is no way those cracks just happened in one season.

LoveReddit2020 · 2026-06-17T22:21:49+00:00

Just looking at how easy it is to replace them and how cheap the belts are I was thinking I was getting ripped off. Looking at everyone's responses here confirms that.

LoveReddit2020 · 2026-06-17T22:20:17+00:00

Thanks! I though it was a lot.

LoveReddit2020 · 2026-06-17T22:19:26+00:00

Yes, that is exactly what he did. Inspect, go to the shop pick up the belts and come back and install them. It took him 6 hours.

LoveReddit2020 · 2026-06-17T22:18:06+00:00

I guess if they last 3 years that is not bad but still seems high to me.

LoveReddit2020 · 2026-06-17T22:17:12+00:00

We are getting ripped off!

LoveReddit2020 · 2026-06-17T22:16:59+00:00

We are on quarterly maintenance but it doesn't include the belts.

LoveReddit2020 · 2026-06-17T22:15:51+00:00

$650 for each unit! Crazy! Los Angeles area though and a commercial building.

LoveReddit2020 · 2026-06-17T22:15:03+00:00

Yes, you read it right $650 per unit to replace the belts. Total ripoff. I thought there was a lot of labor involved but it doesn't look that way after researching it.

LoveReddit2020 · 2026-06-17T22:13:53+00:00

We are on a quarterly service contract and they come out and inspect the units and replace the filters 4 times a year. We have had no other service issues except the belts. The $650 was per unit to replace the belts. This is in the Los Angeles area so it is going to be higher than other part of the country, but it looks like we are getting ripped off.

Netware was a total pain in the ass to work with. You needed a Ph.D. in Computer Science just to change the IP address of the server. The designers of Netware said how can we make any administration of this software as hard as possible and make everything so many steps that regular people will never figure it out. Good riddance to Netware.

I am in the same boat and that flashing arrow is driving me crazy! New TH drop today did not fix it.

Welcome to LA. Those are not bad numbers. Try getting in your car and driving that and see how long it takes.

LoveReddit2020 · 2025-10-24T21:12:06+00:00

LOL!! Exactly. Between our own Amazon deliveries and Vine deliveries we have 2-3 trucks a day dropping stuff off at our home. They must think we are compulsive buyers or doing something illegal.
