I have an O2 sensor at wholesale price for a VW jetta 2000 vr6 . How much for labor to replace sensor?

We have brought the car to a shop and they have told us that the total cost would be $477. I have a friend who is a mechanic at a dealership that can most likely do it for less. Is this price accurate for paying retail price for the part and for the labour put into it. Oh , and i can t get a hold of my mechanic friend until he s actually at work, hense me asking this question on here.I have an O2 sensor at wholesale price for a VW jetta 2000 vr6 . How much for labor to replace sensor?It shoulds a little heavy to me; however, the charge probably includes the diagnosis charge, the part and the labour to install it. Where I used to work (worked with VW dealership service departments on/off from 1980 till December, 2005), labour was among the highest in the country and we didn't charge that a year and half ago. Our labour rate was $125 or so an hour; normally the 0 2 sensor books out at between .5 to .7hrs for most models (at the shop's posted labour rate), tubro excepted. I would get a second opinion and cost quote; it seems a little high to me.



Hope this helps, a car nut.I have an O2 sensor at wholesale price for a VW jetta 2000 vr6 . How much for labor to replace sensor?Sounds like your'e taking the high hard one. If you priced out the job so the mechanic or shop provided the sensor it would have been a whole lot less.I have an O2 sensor at wholesale price for a VW jetta 2000 vr6 . How much for labor to replace sensor?that price to to high, unless one of the guy said they chargin u for resettin the light, diagnostic and stuff like that... o2 sensor is not really hard to change most o2 sensor takes about half to an hour dependin on the codition and the crap.. which one has to be change anywayz.. the most o2 sensor that my shop charge is less than 3 bills with the part already so i dont know..... shop around.. if get firestone,midas,pepppyboys.... get quotes and see the difference between all of them.. goodluck...
