labor hour rate matrix ?
 
Ok, I did a search but didnt really find this.
Is there a website that we can use for reference to make sure that we're not being overcharged by the mechanic for the repairs .. ? e.g. I've always had different quotes by the dealers or the indy's when it comes to the labor charges. parts obviously one can search and be educated.
perhaps some time of matrix that would allow us to view the different labor hours for the w124 or mercedes in general. ?
thanks.

All I know is, many garages use a " Mitchell " manual, to establish labour " guidelines ".
I've also noticed at the " Alldata " site, they use different labour rates for the same job.
One rate is for warranty work ( usually the lower one ), & the other ( higher rate ) for non-warranty work.
But, in all fairness, I know how stingy all OEM's are with warranty labour.
Have listened to many mechanics ***** about this ( rightfully so in many cases ), for a lot of years. ;)
