It can go the other way too in some instances... Not as common but it can... We had a tech that could flag 2.5 hours on a simple tire light under Warrenty. Something that we generally didn't charge customers for... Unless the problem was more than just tire pressure anyway.
well i know damn well a water pump doesnt take 2 - 2.5 hours to put in, ive been a mechanic, at my shop if i took 2 almost 3 hours on a corolla water pump, there would have been problems lol...
