Laura KA 1994 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Hello. Could anybody please advise on the approximate cost to repair Nearside and Offiside Macpherson Strut slight movement on my Ford Ka 2001? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Should take about 1 to 1.5 hours to replace. Most independant garages charge £50-80 per hour, so then add 20% vat you will get a figure from that. Also add part costs... if you supply then they will add 10-20% on top of the labour costs as they make a few quid on parts supplied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
