Default Is there a database online for the number of shop hours a car repair should take?

A job takes the same amount of time in every part of the country.


Not necessarily.
Around here, brake jobs are easy. Up in Massachusetts where they salt the
roads, brake jobs on the same cars are hellish and take far longer.

I know the paper books exist. It's what shops use to look the time up.
Then they simply charge the time by their shop rate.

It may not exist online - but what I'm asking for is the time.

I just want the flat rate time. Online. If it exists.


Chilton's might have it online, but if so it won't be free. They are not
in the business of giving information out for free.
