In my experience, that varies with each service location. My suggestion would be to call various service locations and ask.

Also depends on which make and model (iirc). Some models are fairly easy to work on others are !@#$%^&!!! The flat rate manual will give you the typical time to do a given repair. The shop may add to this to take into account that something may break in the R&R process requiring more time. Multiply this by the shop's posted hourly rate.

Flat rate manuals are a pay/subscription service. Not likely you can find one online. As Steve suggested, get several estimates. You can divide by the shop's posted rate to see the difference in hours allowed.

Sorry for oversight in neglecting to identify model.

I am looking for info on 96 and up S series (4 door sedans and wagons) but suspect that earlier years S series are similar if not identical.

I recognize that there will be some variations depending on the source, and that the Saturn warranty allowable amounts will probably be the shortest.

I have received following data

R&R wiper motor = 1.8-2 hrs

R&R front rotors & pads = 1.2 hrs

R&R rear drums & shoes = 1.6 hrs

R&R frt & rear brakes = 2.6 hrs

The wiper job was my main interest as I have not done this job before and the manual indicated a job that could be problematic due to the nature of required dash disassembly. The brake times were of more general interest to compare with my own experience.
