Labor Hours

I have a copy of the recommended fluid change outs and "checks" for the yearly service, but it does not show the labor hours charged.

Does anyone have a list out of labor hours per service?

Thanks

Each dealer has different labor hours that they charge for services. So its hard to give you a actual labor hours. The best thing you can try is to call around to different dealers and see what they charge for the service you need.

Thanks AMFixer, I know the rate charged will vary but thought that Aston sets hours it takes for various work (service, clutch etc.)

Is there not a recommended number of hours for the yearly service? I believe my last was 4.5hrs.

Thanks

No I mean the actual hours not labor rate. Some dealers charge different labor hours for services. Not all dealers follow the suggested time provided by Aston for services. There is no time set for other repairs, clutches, etc. Each dealer has differnet procedures for times for those. In most cases I have seen it is warranty hour times 1.5. Lets say a clutch pays 3 hours warranty, then customer price would be 4.5 hours.

Sounds like me...

I do a job, total the hours, then invoice the customer for 1.5 times the actual number of hours I spent on their job...'cause I'm very efficient....

Anyone have information on how long they have been billed for a brake flush.

I was billed 4.5 hrs for the yearly service that was just oil, and filters, and "checks". My next one will have the brake fluid change out as well (every two years).
