How much does it cost to replace the struts on a 2002 Pontiac sunfire?

Answer 1

I can help a little here. The Autozone website shows that the struts cost $50 each for the front, $51 for the rear. If you want to replace the springs, they're $50 each. That gives you at least some idea of parts cost. Labor, if you have the job done at the shop, will be another story. I'd expect somewhere around 3 hours at nominally $50 p/hour. I think I'd want to set aside about $ $500 to be sure everything is covered. That estimate doesn't include springs.

If you do the job yourself, you'll need to rent a spring compressor. Hopefully, you have all the other necessary hand tools.

Bear in mind that messing with the springs can be very dangerous! You must be familiar with the compressor and how to use it. If you're in doubt, have the shop do the job.
