When do the automakers step up and take responsibility for making them so easy to steal?
Maybe it's time to go back to the good old physical key and lock tumbler.

VW Stealership
Time for a new fuel filter on a 2015 Golf TDI Ruth calls me and said that the dealer wanted $275 parts and labor. Filter is $50. I said buy the part and walk away (already knew that you can only get it from VW). Took me 5 minutes, its 5 star drive nuts, lift lid, pull old filter pop in new and top off the canister with diesel, replace the lid, tighten 5 nuts.
Fuckers wanted to take her for $200. fuck them

People love getting fleeced by the dealerships service department. They also love sitting around waiting for hours while getting fleeced.
Yall Americans are lucky that you can actually purchase most OEM VW parts online, including this fuel filter.
Its $43 here.

I hate this ontariovwparts.com website. It makes finding VW parts here in the province of Ontario difficult, as that site is always in the search results. Our parts sites here will list everything, but a lot of the items have no code to actually purchase.
Not saying it’s right but that is about where pricing is for jobs like that. “Shop rates” at around $200 per hour are not uncommon. Typically shops will have a Minimum charge of one hour, which puts you at $250 for parts and labor. Throw in a disposal fee for the old filter and you’re at $275. Not cheap, questionable if it’s fair, but I think it’s the going rate…
Also, don’t you have to bleed a diesel to get the air out after opening the fuel system like that?

Nope, you just insert the filter then fill the canister to the top with diesel and replace the lid

The irony is very strong in blaming the buyers for flipping cars. Porsche must have forgotten about supply and demand. Their limited run of this car is what is causing the price to go up. Just produce more and the prices will stay low. Or don't make it at all and produce more entry level 911s at a good price if you want people out there driving your cars. All of this is just more marketing bull shit to prove they are a drivers focused company.Porsche 911 S/T Will Be Leased to Buyers for the First Year to Deter Scalpers

$200/hour is 100% questionable and not fair. A good master technician is only getting $25-$30/hour flat rate out of that $200. $100 or more of that $200 is going directly into the owners pocket. Corporate greed from the big car dealer conglomerates is trickling down to the small mom and pop dealerships. The only ones making money now are owners and top tier management.
I had a 2003 Vdub Tdi, I didn't bleed shit when I changed the fuel filter, half the time I didn't even have diesel on hand to fill the filter. I just let it crank over for a couple minutes until the fuel pump delivered enough diesel to refill the filter. Yes I know that is stupid but I was young and stupid back then.
