Usually 70-100 quid exchange, plug gearbox oil/seal and an hours labour so 150 sounds about right.________________________________________  Seat Leon Cupra FR / 306 GTI6 / Breaking 205 GTI6 / Caterham 7 / Mercedes Sprinter 311CDI LWB Sold: Fisher Fury - Laguna DCI Estate - P1 306 XSI - E30 BMW 325i Baur Convertible - Daihatsu Fourtack - Suzuki GSXR600 - 205 Rallye |

Dead easy to do yourself though, even more so with the passenger side! |

I used to do them the old fashioned way with a long bar and a rubber mallet The arms have just been changed so it might free off easily ________________________________________ Team BlazeBass Mechanix Competition Car (soon) |

You'll also need a 35/36mm socket and a big breaker bar. |

Can I Bump on this thread... Can you remember rear-end what the symptoms was?I have some minor Vibrations but a lot of noise from the front passenger corner. I'd say it is louder than my exhaust at the moment (decat/scorpion cat back) apart from on full Chat. Cheers.  |

Don't count on him replying; he hasn't logged in for almost 4 years (and he couldn't reply without purchasing membership first...)Based on your symptoms I'd advise checking the wheel bearings and drive shaft CV joints. The vibrations could also be caused by the wheels becoming unbalanced, but that wouldn't give any noise other than the vibrations themselves. ________________________________________ Rich |
