The £750 oil leak!!

<< < (2/3) > >>

chris9119:
Thats bloody costly. £100/£120 for LR recon unit fit it yourself.

Chris

ps: they do break through various reasons. I've had three starters in 18mths (but then again..............., it does get stuck in puddles.

ps: now its fully waterproofed, just like the army.... so i may drop it into some mud to see if it starts.

Bulli:
If ever i have a problem with my bladder being too full I will give this guy a call. Ask him what drugs he has been taking and if possible nip in and see if it starts. Not that I mistrust garages but if the oil leak wasnt what he told you and you didnt question him, he may be thinking you are a soft touch.
Easy fix, even seen one removed, cleaned and refitted whilst laning.

So ...I am being had by the sounds of it! well i will keep you all posted on the outcome.
Due to collect saturady, thanks again

Pike:
£330!!!!!!!!!!!!!eh?........jeez he saw you coming..........tell him to leave the starter,get a workshop manual and get your hands mucky.

Ben:
Can't remember how much I paid for mine, but I'm sure it was only £70 quid or so. That was for a defender 300TDi, and I fitted it myself, but it can't be much different for a disco - can it?

Got mine from Paddocks, so well worth a call. Last time I bought anything from there, they were doing free delivery on anything over £50 if bought on the web.

You will get your hands dirty with this one though - make sure you've got plenty of hand cleaner (swarfega type stuff)  :lol:

While you're out, pop to B&Q and buy a hammer to keep in the Disco so that you can tap the starter until you get round to doing it...

Cheers

Ben
