I have a 2000 VW, Jetta VR6 w/87,000 mi. Can you tell me how much (more or less) bushings should cost, and how long should it take for the job?

The dealership says they'll only charge about $240 & it will take about 3 hrs. I DON'T trust them, I've had plenty of BAD experiences w/them already. Another mechanic says they'll charge about $500, BUT I trust them more. I feel they will do a much better job. What do you say?
Thanks for your reply.

If it's worth 260.00 more for your peace of mind, go for it, me I would go with the lower price at the dealer...but make sure they stick to that price!
