Hi Guys,
If you wouldn't mind im after some advise and a quick opinion.
My Cab 1.8T BFB engine broke down on Sunday. Alternator failure. Literally went ghost on me whilst driving..managed to pull on the side of the Road before the RAC man confirmed the alternator was kaput.
My Audi guy (ex master tech at Audi) charged £400 for the replacement.
This consisted of £260 for alternator and the rest labour. A brand new Bosch alternator is £280, but my guy used an 'Elstock' branded remanufactured one.
This is a Danish OEM certified company who specialise in alternators. Ranging from £200 to £300+
Do you think my supposed 'mate' mugged me off or is this around what i should be charged?
Any comments are much appreciated.
Dan.
