U4GM GTA 5 Auto Shop Contracts Money Guide

Andrew736

When the weekly bonuses land, Auto Shop work can turn into a proper cash run instead of something you do between bigger jobs. If you are weighing up GTA 5 Accounts options or building up a new character, an Auto Shop gives you eight rotating contracts from its planning board. The jobs have a few moving parts, but they are easy to learn once you have done them a couple of times. During double-reward weeks, the board is where a lot of players spend their session. It is quick, repeatable, and does not demand a full crew.

Pick the right contract

The Union Depository job is the one worth watching for. With the weekly multiplier active, it can pay $600,000. You first collect an elevator key, then track down the vault code, and then run the main robbery. A player who knows the layouts can get through the whole thing in roughly 25 minutes. That is why many people skip the lower-paying board entries when this one appears.

Contract stage	What you do	Why it matters
Setup one	Collect the elevator key	Opens the route into the building
Setup two	Secure the vault code	Gets the robbery ready
Main job	Take the gold and deliver it	Earns the $600,000 event payout

Cut the long drive

Once the gold is loaded and you are out of the building, the GPS will try to send you across Los Santos in the assigned car. You do not have to treat that route as law. Head for the police station nearby instead. Get up to the roof, take the Police Maverick, and fly straight toward the buyer. It feels a little scrappy, but it saves a surprising amount of time. More importantly, you are spending less time on streets where enemy vehicles can chip away at the take.

Leave the vault area and clear the immediate pursuit.
Drive to the nearby police station.
Reach the roof and take the helicopter.
Fly directly to the delivery point.

Give the cops something else to chase

The escape is smoother if you use Support Crew at the right moment. Open the Interaction Menu while the wanted level is still causing trouble, select Support Crew, and pay $5,000 for Diversion. An NPC vehicle pulls police attention away from your route, which gives you room to get airborne or move through a tight street. It is a small cost beside the contract reward. Do not wait until everything is already crowded around you; calling it early usually works better.

Make each run count

There is no need to overthink it: check the board, take Union Depository when it shows up, and keep the setups moving. The helicopter shortcut and Diversion call turn the messy part of the job into something far more manageable. For players looking at GTA 5 Modded Accounts buy choices, knowing a reliable contract loop also helps make everyday sessions feel less like a grind. A clean run, a quick delivery, then back to the board is a pretty good rhythm.
