Recommended Posts

okay so iv ordered from Adrian....

rear disks

rear pads

front pads

3x clutch/brake fluids

plenum spacer

hks oil filter

magnetic sump plug

 

iv been quoted from garage £200 for...

oil change

brake fluid full change

clutch fluid drained/refilled

rear disks and pads changed

front pads changed

plenum spacer fitted

 

now i think the quote is quite good but is there any thing I should make them aware of when doing the above work?

 

ie is there any specific things that need addressing/cleaning when fitting plenum spacer

 

there not to touch throttle body internals?

 

also when breeding brakes im sure I read something on here about master cylinder not been run dry? ...

 

any advice to pass on appreciated :)

Make sure they know exactly how to bleed the brakes. There is a order which it has to be done in. I had a nightmare getting a local garage to get it right. In the end H-Dev sorted them out for me.

mmm this is stuff that concerns me tbh .i may have to get a quote from someone that knows zeds better.

the lads at my local are very good but i would be more assured if someone more familiar with 350s did the work

If you can get to a specialist it really is worth the travel. I wasn't convinced someone could mess up a fluid change but I was proven wrong. Lesson learnt on my part

trying to find one close to york as we speak.

iv messaged someone on here who specialises on 350s called lee asking for quote
