Hi I got a quote to replace my front upper strut mount and front lower control arm, the labour costs seems very high. Can someone tell me if this is reasonable? Upper strut mount 8 hrs total for both sides Front lower control arm 3 hours total for both sides Alignment 2.2 hours This seems very high, this is from a independent Porsche shop. Thanks
Sounds at least 2x longer than it should take.
Shopping 101 - always get multiple quotes! That old saying "there's a sucker born every minute" didn't come from nowhere... good luck !
Maybe from a one-armed mechanic!
Don't know about the control arms by an Indy near me was 1/2 that in labor for front shocks/mounts. Also alignment was a fixed price.
if that shop charges $20/ hr those time estimates would be just about right.
Thanks everyone. I thought it was a bit excessive.
