Default Bleeding brakes???

How much do you reacon it would cost me at a garage to have my brake system bled and re-juiced on my frst?

Need it doing this weekend and haven't got the time to do it myself.

Would it be best just taking it to somewhere like national car centre and drive in and get it done??

Cheers

i did mine a few weeks ago, fluid cost me £10 for 3 bottles, but only used 1.5 and took about 1 hour or so. So it shouldn't be too much relly, just the labour cost per hour, say 1.5 hours max at about £40 per hour......all in i would say expect change from £60.

Try and find time if you can tho save the cash, but if not i'm sure places like Kwikfit, ATS etc would do it tho.....
