    Hey guys,

    I'm reasonably new to owning a car. It's just gone through it's first service since I bought it. There's a few things that was noticed during the service that needs to be repaired.

    The place that serviced it quoted me the prices of parts and labour to carry out the work that's needed.

    As I said, I know nothing about cars unfortunately and while I'm waiting on some other quotes I'm just wondering if anyone on here could tell if these quotes seem legit or if I'm being taken for a ride.

    Hopefully someone can help. Thanks.

    1. Front Brake Pads and labour €70.00

    2. Rear Brake Pads and labour €70.00

    3. Two Front Flexi Brake Lines €28 each and €80.00 labour

    4. Two Front Drop Links €22.00 each and €40.00 labour

    5. Two Rear Swing Arm Bushings (no cost as they don't have them and told me to go to Toyota for them, but told me to expect to pay €120.00 for labour when I get the parts.

    6. Minor Engine Oil Leak €30.00 to reseal.

    Fairly normal in my opinion. I have an Auris MK1 and have similar service costs.
