gtp20

Hello,

The starter has gone on my 2003 A4. I'm just wondering if anyone could give me a rough idea what it should cost to rebuild? Of course the car broke down while I was out of town. Instead of being five minutes from my usual garage I'm stuck out in the country right between Ottawa and Montreal.

There is a guy in a little town here that quoted me $200 (if he has the parts) which seems high to me. I seem to remember the last starter I had rebuild ran me about $80 (it was not for an Audi). Just wondering if I should start looking for a place in Ottawa to rebuild it, or if $200 is reasonable?

I have removed the starter, just looking for a price on the rebuild only. If anyone knows who I should take it to in Ottawa that info would be appreciated to.

Thanks in advance for any help!

If you ask me 200.00 is much overpriced. http://www.autopartsway.ca/PartList....pagenum1/tabS/

Reman is about 200.00 from this place...and free shipping! To have it rebuilt should be less, unless hes actually quoting a rebuilt starter, which would be fine, if it was a new reman..

Send it to Newfoundland,cost me 80 for the starter and 40 for the alternator,and warranty for as long as I own it.
