pimpkiller Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 Ok my idea (big punto) has failed its MOT on worn rear suspension bushes but the guy wants about £300 to supply and fit 2 bushes (independant garage) this dosnt sound right to me how much do you think it should be? its a car that has cheap parts to buy.

al4x Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 sounds like they may not be replaceable and they are renewing the unit at that price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimpkiller Posted May 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 no he mentioned that and wanted about £80 per bush + labour + VAT thats why i think its cobblers, how much should fitting 2 bushes be? I was thinking <£100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 on a fiat thats 2 hours labour in independant garages and I guess it depends how simply it goes. You could DIY it but I bet you finished and wished you just paid up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimpkiller Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 just to update this for anyone interested, I bought 2 new rear shock absorbers off the internet for £57 and had a garage fit them for £24 in less than 30 mins the original garage wanted £300 in total to just fit 2 bushes which cant actually be replaced i think. BIG difference so well happy i used my brain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
