  2. How difficult to replace a camshaft position actuator?

    My garage are quoting 7 hours of labour to replace a camshaft position actuator on my 04 Leon Cupra. Does this sound reasonable? Its annoying because they origionally quoted 1 hour of labour but now are saying it is much more difficult than they first thought. Argh! Cheers!
