    Queensland RWC

    Hey guys,

    Hoping for some advice from people who know more about cars than I do! I'm hoping to sell my car in the near future and took it to the mechanic to get a roadworthy. I'm not sure if I am being ripped off, or if I genuinely need to do all these things to pass the roadworthy. Currently they are quoting $2800 (the car isn't worth too much more) for all the repairs to pass a roadworthy.

    Car is 2007 Volkswagen Golf (V Comfortline Hatchback 5dr Man 5sp 1.6)

    They said I needed the following:

    - Replace front l/h outer CV boot

    - Replace engine mounts

    - Replace rear brake pads (they are 3mm but are scored)

    - Replace rear rotors

    - Replace rocker cover gasket

    - Injector seals

    - Intake manifold gaskets

    - Engine degrease

    - 4 new tyres

    Do you think $2800 is reasonable? And are all these things that are safety issues (and need to be passed for a roadworthy)? Also what are my options (I'm new to QLD)! Am I allowed to get another roadworthy for a second opinion?

    Happy for any advice or suggestions!
