    Failed my NCT on a 99 Alfa 146 (91K miles) due to worn left and right font wishbones.

    Got a quote today for €390 to replace.
    Does this seem like good value.

    Thanks

    Seems ok if they are going to check the tracking etc as part of the job.

    You could probably get them done a bit cheaper but do you know anybody who would do it for less? I think the price is probably ok.

    agree sounds about a decent enough price. I presume that includes labour?

    Thanks for the replies.

    Yes €390 in total including labour and tracking.

    I did not get a breakdown of the parts and labour, but the wishbones are €52 euro each on micksgarage so I though the overall cost was a bit expensive


    btw. how much is tracking on it's own in advance pit stop.

    Get the wishbones yourself, go to a backyard garage or get a mechanic to do the wishbones, bring it to advance pitstop or someit to get tracking done.

    Sorted. probably a lot cheaper minus the hassle.

    EDIT: my tracking was 60 euro in advance.
