My Audi dealer has my car tomorrow for an oil service and change of brake fluid. The garage gave me 9 30 as a slot for leaving the car off. The mechanic phoned today to confirm arrangements and stated 4 30 as the earliest the car would be ready. What is a reasonable duration for such work? I'm not seeking at this point to dispute the labour costs...they are probably set anyway. I'm annoyed by the length of time I have to do without the car for what seems to me to be relatively straightforward activity.
How long is a piece of string, it depends what the find in the process, Oil Brake Fluid, 3hrs depending if the system can be Bled easy, some can be a right pain, at the most 5 hrs. but there are garages & there are Garages.
Thats the normal reply. My guess is that The duration of work is about three to four hours . (Depends which type of service really)I am asked when booking my car in if I need a courtesy car , suggest next time you ask for a courtesy car, you will have to book in earlier though as they only have so many cars available, surprised they did not ask when you booked in . I get asked, courtesy car, car to be picked up or lift to local train station.
Dodger, some charge a min of £70>>£90 P/H/ that is some dealers costs, It amazes me when person's on here go to the dealers when you can get it done & your service book stamped at a local private non rip off garage! some folk are made of money.
