Me too - triggers my biggest fear of dealers, the "They broke something and don't want to tell me" fear.

Picked the 4x4 up this morning the delay was because the replacement took 13 hours in total not 3 as costed by Hyundai , fortunately I had agreed to the original quote before work commenced 😉
Labour 275.07
Parts 1114.28
VAT 277.87 Total 1667.22
I spoke with the workshop foreman this morning, used to be a neighbour till we moved & he told me the sheer weight of the unit caused the biggest problems but if they get another one in the price would be a lot different !
So back to Sussex tomorrow to collect the caravan.

If it suits your needs and looks ok (which I know yours does) why not keep it till it doesn't suit your needs and it doesn't look ok?

Exactly right Stemo it's only done just over 80,000 miles should be good for at least another 150,000 I will probably cover only around 30,000 if I keep it another 3 years, so financially to keep it up to scratch makes sense.

Replace because its expensive/unreliable, because its got too tatty, or because you just fancy something different :)

Its personal choice.

I'm surprised labour is so cheap and the parts so expensive.

What were they playing at, its not that hard to change with a ramp, there just big and heavy boxes (yet still rather weak)

I guess at the price a new flywheel was fitted to ?  :y
