Guess the Audi price...
 

Put my car in for one of Audi's general health check things. Got a mate who is a workshop tech in one of the Essex dealers so he was taking live pictures of anything unusual which was good while I was having a coffee

-Headlamp washer hose leaking (fair enough, I bodged it myself with hosepipe)
-Left drive shaft worn
-Right drive shaft worn
-both sides suspension bushes/controls arms worn
-both sides lower arm bushes worn
-front suspension arms and bushes (wishbones), all 4 worn
-rear axle bushes worn
-n/s/r brake caliper slight leak
-brake fluid change required
-cambelt (done late last year but obviously not on their records, so this wouldn't be required)

So... guess the price! ;)

£__,_____

£3.5k :rolleyes:

More :ROFL:

What?!? Another £1000 on top?

So the burning question is will you be getting the work done at Audi? :ROFL:

At almost 9 grand, would you?! :ROFL:

A garage I use a lot will do all the arms and bushes for around £550 for a start.

Holy ****, thats way more than i thought it would be.

:tuttut:

Geez! I've just almost choked on my coffee and biscuits !!! :eek:

I was adding that up at an average of £1k per job - wouldn't have been surprised at £10k tbh

…which is why Audi need to price their products/services more "realistically" for older models. 9k for maintenance exceeds the value of nearly all of the cars on here.
