$ Book rate for brake job on a 951
I want to see if my tech over charged me for the job he did so I need the rate for replacing front/rear brakepads f/r rotors and install a set of stainless steel brake lines
I JUST NEED THE LABOR$ NOT THE PARTS $
thanks Mike

I would plan on 6 hours to do pads, rotors, brake lines and bleed the brakes. Maybe more if I had problems with parts, etc.
For a radiator on a turbo, I would plan on 4 hours. Someone might do it more quickly, but it takes time to remove and replace all that extraneous turbo stuff...
I guess that the real question is, if you distrust your mechanic, why aren't you doing the work yourself or finding another mechanic???
