What affects the price
- region and city: prices vary between voivodeships
- car model and design, including access to the cable under the floor
- whether the car has a conventional cable-operated handbrake or an electric parking brake (the latter requires an additional adaptation procedure)
- quality of parts: an original cable costs more than a replacement
- whether the part (cable) is charged separately from labour
Usually included in the price
- cable replacement
- tension adjustment
- handbrake effectiveness test
Usually charged separately
- the price of the cable alone, if charged separately
- an additional adaptation procedure for an electronic parking brake
Prices vary very widely depending on the source: from simple, cheaper repairs to more expensive options with premium parts, which is why the price spread is large despite several consistent sources.
Prices from customers and companies
Two types of entries: customers state how much they paid for the entire job and rate the contractor; service providers enter their price lists. Customer entries have three reliability levels: ✓ verified: invoice or receipt (the editorial team has seen a document matching the entry), ✓ verified: declaration (the author confirmed the entry using a link sent by e-mail) and unverified (how we verify entries); we do not verify company price lists. Price lists entered by companies are not included in the median at the top of the page; customer amounts are included only for services priced as a complete service.
