dazzyvr6 0 Posted October 21, 2003 from what i hear its a tw** of a job to do,yet again the parts are cheap but the labour is going to cost a lot,unless you do it yourself,i would imagine a garage would charge anything between 200-300 quid Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

me32dh 0 Posted October 23, 2003 I thought that this was quite a lengthy job (4-5hrs), and that it is quite likely that the rear brake valve will be broken in the process. The part prices are (Prices are for one and all +VAT) R/Axle Bushes x2 1H0 501 541 A 24.38 (VAG) or 17.50 (GPC) R/Brake Valve x1 1H0 612 151 C 99.75 (VAG) or 82.00 (GPC) How long have you been charged for the job? And were there any problems removing the rear brake valve? Thanks, Duncan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
