How much to fit a new water pump?

I think I may have been fleeced by my indy...

How long should it take to fit a water pump if you know what you're doing?

Hmm.

So 6 hours to fit a new water pump, fix a (pre diagnosed) kink in the sunroof drain, and replace a missing screw on one of the roof rails really is taking the Censored .

Yep, there is quite a risk in being caught if you take money off people by threatening them. It is a lot easier to inflate labour time in order to rob people of their money. Not only does it avoid the police but it is more lucrative too as it is rare for people to carry the kind of cash that an extra 4 hrs labour would cover.

Find a good indy!
