I've no idea what I was expecting tbh but it wasn't this:

Regarding the oil change your porsche our repair budget is 661.94 Euros:
-9 Liters of oil mobil 1 to 174.91
-1 Oil filter - 28.23
-2 Air filters - 48.71
Cabin filters -2 - 63.96
-1 Game front brake pads - 109.47
-1 Game brake pads back - 89.06
-6 Hours of work -147.60 Euros


This isn't a main dealer...its a small independent. Why do they want to change the break pads, presumably they're fine?

How much does it cost to do this in UK. Cayene GTS, 2009

thanks

I've emailed them back and said to remove the brake bits and asked how many hours that takes off the 6. The place is a right pain in the arse to get to... I'd hoped doing the oil was an hour or two. The labour charge isn't a major issue... but I wanted to take my laptop and wait while they done it. If they're going to take 4+ hours I might as well just get a taxi there/back rather than sit about.
