2. Price for the work of an auto repairman / specialist;

The most expensive are original spare parts for Mazda 5 from the manufacturer. Each such part has its own part-number, by which you can find analogues from other manufacturers.

In a car service, prices for Mazda 5 repairs can be fixed for each type of service and be the same for all car brands: suspension diagnostics, oil change, replacement of pads, replacement of air filters. An alternative price option, when payment is made for "1 standard hour", has its own for each car model.

In this case, each Mazda 5 repair operation is determined by timing, that is, the time it takes. This is called "Rate of Labor". Each car manufacturer indicates these numbers in the tables of reference books for each car model separately.

It often happens that the repair of a Mazda 5 by a mechanic takes longer than the standardspecified in the work reference. In this case, you have the right to pay only for the fixed standard hours allotted for this operation. Whether the auto repairman will do it more slowly, or faster, depends on his qualifications.

The ideal option is not to give the car keys to anyone, under any circumstances., and only get behind the wheel yourself. Fully supervise the repair of Mazda 5, being in the working area with the auto repairman all the time. Such conditions often contradict the safety precautions of a car service, but this will save you from most of the problems, and the repair service will be as transparent as possible.

If for repairing a Mazda 5, according to the rules of a car service, it is required to hand over the car, then be sure to draw up an act of acceptance of the car for repair. This procedure involves the transfer of the car key, and often the registration certificate. An employee of a car service independently drives the car into a box, or onto a lift.

The Mazda 5 acceptance certificate for repair or diagnostics includes:

1. List of works and faults required to repair the car;
2. List of spare parts for replacement;
3. Diagram and description of the presence / absence of defects on the car that do not require elimination during the repair process;
4. Completeness of the car: things, tools, accessories not related to repair.

Upon completion of the work, it is necessary to verify all the points for the documented repair and the actually performed. One employee can take a car, a second to repair a Mazda 5, and a third to hand over a job. If any inconsistencies are found later, it will be more difficult to prove it.
