    Wiper Blade and Rear Brake Pad Costs

    Hey,

    have the car in being serviced. Needs new rear brake pads and wipers (x3).

    Quoted $300 fitted for the pads and $140 Fitted for the Wipers.

    Is this reasonable for VW? I know I could get it cheaper using non genuine parts and non VW service, but just wonder whether this is in the ballpark when getting serviced @ a dealer.

    Cheers

Sorry VW, you make great cars but until you improve your customers' experiences you will lose customers

    It doesnt sound too bad. Im not sure how much the brakes are, i do my own brakes on my cars. I got front wiper blades for my golf and they were about $60 (fronts only). Supercheap sells them too for about the same money but they are the worst blade you can get.
    so i dont think that the price is unreasonable
