Electrical problem
2000 Honda CRV 4 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic

Just checking to see if a Distributor Cap Assy can fail or should it last indefinitely.

The car is 9 years old, never much problem other than brakes, tires, etc.

Now the mechanic wants to charge us $500.00 to replace the Dist. Cap Assy.

Does this sound fair?

$500 is a bit much if it is an aftermarket distributor.

You can usually find them for around $250 for an aftermarket one. Install and setting timing is about an hours labour.
