How many hours did they charge you for Grumpy2?

Bagman: Where did you have yours done and how many hours?

Thanks.

[Light bulb coming on] Having just looked at the service schedule, the 30k service looks like it adds replacement of fuel hoses, brake hoses and pipes, cylinder and caliper rubber parts, clutch hose and clutch slave cylinder seal. Perhaps that's why it's so much more expensive than your 24/26k one.

Thanks. The number of hours is on a par with what Laguna have told me the 30k service plus valve check will be.

It looks like there may be more parts for the 30k service as per my earlier post and I know Laguna's hourly rate is expensive (£58 plus VAT). Once I realised there were differences between the 24/26k and 30k services I bit the bullet and booked it back in. I can't say I'm overjoyed at the cost but once I factor in the hassle and cost of travelling elsewhere it's probably not worth my while doing it.
