[s-cars] ElsaWin labor times

[Tony Hoffman]

Cody,

Mitchell shows 6.5 hrs for Differential R&R, includes R&I transaxle and
adjust bearing pre-load where necessary. That is for the 89 Cabriolet.

I'm not too sure how the Elsawin/VW system works as far as the labor units.
Mitchell shows .8 to check alignment and 1.0 for front brake pads. Hope that
helps, but maybe not.....................

BTW, if anyone on the list ever needs labor times for something, feel free
to ask.

Tony
