My car is manual Honda jazz 2006.
I booked an appointment for brake service with my local garage and they booked an appointment last Friday. First thing in the morning on Friday I took my car to the garage at 9 am. At the end of the day around 5:30 pm, they told me it needs all 4 brake pads changed, front two brake discs and rear right brake caliper changed. They said they dont have the parts and the parts will arrive on Monday. It’s almost 2 pm and heard nothing from them. I feel like they are treating me like a prat.
Does it take this long ? For context I live in London UK.

Can’t control when the parts show up, it’s gotta go from the supplier, to a truck, to the parts store, and then to us. Shit happens.
A brake job doesn’t take very long if everything goes smoothly. Keep in mind that just because you left the car early doesn’t mean they will start on it right away, and once it’s in the bay they may be at the mercy of parts availability. They may work on other cars while they wait for parts, or while waiting to hear back from a customer. All you can do is give them a call asking for a ETA.
