cost of wiper linkage replacement labour

[joe]

My qashqai's wiper linkage broke when it was being MOT'd.

I have been charged 1.5 hours labour.  It seems very accessible and this time seems outrageous.

Has anyone done this job, if so how long does it take?

thanks    joe

Hi Joe...welcome to the Forum

Sorry, not sure of the job time but it's very unfortunate to have failed during the MOT.

Sometimes, albeit it looks accessible it can be a nightmare to feed the linkages through and into place, sorry, not entirely sure though as never done one.

I have same problem but on Vectra C, bought a good used wiper motor with linkages, whole unit for £10, looks easy enough to fit , about 20 minutes tops
