Garage - allocated labour time to do a 'job'.
I wonder if anyone knows if there is a 'time-sheet' of sorts out there in the public domain for how long a given 'job' on a Rover/MG should take, as would have been used by a MG/Rover dealership? For example, 1 hour labour to do brake pads, 1.5 hours to do brake pads and discs. 0.4 hours for a T4 diagnostic session?

Most garages have an ICME manual

I've used Autodata when I've had my car in the garage.
If nothing else it lets you know you're not being ripped off

MG Rover dealerships had what is called RTS ( Repair time searcher ). That gives times for nearly everything. As far as i know, all Xpart Autoservice centers use the same times.

I assume the job times quoted are for repair on an as-new car - ie no rusty bolts and parts readily available.
