Default How long to install rotors????

My honda dealer quoted 2 hrs more on top of the 2hrs worth of work they are charging me for putting my springs on. I'm fine with this as long as these numbers are right. I'm just afraid he might be thinking of a bigbrake kit and not just replacement rotors. Guestimates welcome

They go by the book not what it will really take. If the book says 2 hours then thats what your going to be charged. Not that 2 hours is that bad, but if you have a good tech it won't take him that long, hour maybe. All they have to do is remove the caliper and then the 2 screws and then pop off the old rotor and install the new one, Assuming everything comes off fairly easy, sometimes those little screws can be a pain. You should be ok.

BTW is there a reason you didn't install them yourself?? You've got a good size list of mods in your sig did you install any of that yourself....because rotors a fairly easy, I'm sure you could do it and save yourself the money.

If you change your brakes you can chage your own rotors!!! You just need the impact hammer thingie that will get those screws out. Mine were a huge pain to get out.
