Is this a lot to be charged?
 

Hi Guys
Took my car to bmw and they gave me a good size list of things to do. I took the car to a indy who was a bmw specialist, he said half the things they listed were fine and that bmw are told to upsell things when the car is in, for instance £60 for a wiper. Anyway he said the following needed to be done and charged me £370 ($600) all in (5 hours labour and parts)

2 x Thrust arm bushes
1 x Hub Nut
1 x CV Boot replacement
5 hours labour

Does this sound like a reasonable price?

Thanks

Yes that does sound reasonable, at least compared to what dealers/shops charge in the States.

I agree...in this area the labor would be $600.

I don't believe BMW calls it an upsell. it is called 'Peace of mind'. You do get something for your money, but do you really need it?

"Peace of Mind" ....Sheesh!!!
After dropping a bundle and wondering what's going to break next?
YES, I really need my money :D

if you really need your money, then start DIY...
