adman Posted December 15, 2010 Author Share Posted December 15, 2010 Thanks for the further thoughts. Definately on the pricey side... . So will go with the DIY option. Have priced up the parts around the £200 mark, so the car will be with me for a few more years hopefully.Thanks for the advice.Adam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottravenhill Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 In my experience Honda have never been ones to rip you off, seems like there is an anomalie here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johngreen537 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Always dealer dependant mate! My dealer in Swindon is superb, but, for the BM stuff, it's massivley different in 2 dealers! I needed a output shaft bearing replaing on the BM, one dealer quoted me for the part £40!, another told me it's a differential replacement job, £1800+fitting! Depends on who answers the phone really! I'm assuming they've got book times for all the parts above, and doubled up a lot of the labour charges, like cambelt change, labour charge should be included in the actual HG replacemen labour!

scottravenhill Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 yeah i work for a fleet company and i authorise work on company cars. We find that most honda dealers stick to the book but most all other manufacturers are trying to scam all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
