No worries

When installing O rings it’s best to put a smear of oil onto them Thumbs Up

Dealer quoted me £500 plus £100 for diagnostics to replace a door lock


Wow that's plain mad.

I paid £190 for diagnostic on a transfer box on an X5. I told them what was happening, they told me that they have had issues with the transfer boxes on this model and it would need to be replaced. However they would need to do "diagnostics" on it first.

Just had a quote for mine by a local air con expert (recommended by a friend who had his D3 done a few years back) to replace the rear air con pipes with plastic ones for £380

Is that a good price?

Can't do another year without Aircon!

If that’s all inclusive of testing re-gassing etc. I guess it’s not a bad price. Much better than replacing with the LR pipes that will rust out again. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE
2010 D4 HSE (A bit bling)-GONE
2014 D4 HSE (Almost too bling)-GONE
2015 D4 HSE (A heated what?)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Written Off)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Surely the last!) PD1881 rims-GONE

Demand?
New gas replacing it? (In America)


Thanks to the link for the oil.
The system also has a small amount of oil in it to keep the compressor lubricated.
