I have several jobs I need completed before I MoT my car next month.

Is anyone on here close enough to a VAG tech to ask them how long these jobs should take and hence, cost?  :confused:

1) Remove & replace Front Discs & Pads,
2) Remove & replace Rear Discs & Pads,
3) Remove Diverter Valve & replace (Potential DIY),
4) Remove PCV & replace.

Cheers.

Front ds and ps = 1 hour
rear ds and ps = 1 hour
dv = 0.5 hour
pcv = 0.5 hour

That what i would base it on. If you had mechanical skills then it can all be done at home. Why dont you find a local specialist and get them to do it. Thats why were here  :laugh:

^^^^^ thanks, bondy.

I'd be willing to have a go at the DV (maybe PCV too), but I'm not fcuking around with my brakes incase I'm not a thorough as I think I am...

I use an excellnet Indy near Glasgow, but he could (he wouldn't, though) turn round and say 'five hours' and I'd have no idea...
