getting work done

[sleeprr]

Hey guys I've got an 2004 a6 2.7t and the aux water pump is leaking and the dealer wants $750 to replace it...seemed pretty high so I'm having a local shop do it for me along with a REVO chip and plugs/DVs. Do you know what the book time and a decent price is for this aux water pump job??? Thanks.

Definitely high! go to an Indy shop with lower hourly rate and also more reasonable time for the job.
Part is 115 to 140 $. Labor should be 4 hrs

I paid 115 for the part on line, shop charged I thinki 3.5 to 4hrs labor. so 440-450 all in.
Since they ahve to remove the intake I also took advantage of it to put in the NewSouth Powergaskets... they are obnly 75$ and no extra labor.


By the way, Audi sells a relocation kit that make it more reliable and easeir to access for future repair I think. DAFT has the part #.
Yuo should look into it.

I'm not really worried about the relocation kit but which gaskets should I get and from who? My guy is gonna do the work this weekend so I'd like to grab those asap.
