Had my mechanic mate service the MV6, he gave me a shopping list :

Could someone provide part no's and prices please

Sump bung - mine nearly knackered apparently
diff seal - going apparently
Front disks & pads kit & the sensors - Advisory from last mot, still need doing
When he went to do the fuel filter, he stopped as he thinks a seal has gone, are there any bits here he can replace?  He didnt want to remove the old one to find he couldnt fit the new?

When it goes back he commented my headlights are pointing too low so is going to adjust those, and have another look for the mysterious coolant leak, still getting though a litre every few days.  Its not the HBV that is done and dry.

If any more info needed, I am seeing him tonight as te CDX is getting a service / breather clean and MOT.

Also as vxon still not issueing trade cards, its probably worth me joining another club to save on that lot, who is the quickest these days?

Cheers

New style sump plug is around £3.50
Diff seal is £10 ish
Front pads/discs/sensors about £80 on TC
No seals around fuel filter. 2 clips often break, about 50p each...

Cheers matey, not bank breaking then

Hi Jimbob

Ive just bought alot of the stuff you are buying.

The discs and pads £81.78, you will probably need two sensors which are £10.70 each and the sump plug was £5.27 all including the VAT.

I have an oil filter and O ring for the sump plug which I bought in error and you can have those and if its any good to you I have a Vauxhall trade card and am setting off for Chester at about 3.30 today. I will also be in Chester tomorrow morning as well so I could drop it off tonight and pick it up tomorrow lunch

[Jimbob]

You're a good man!

I will be home from about 4 today.
Do you remember the address, or want a pm?
Can chat then about return arrangements, where when etc.

Big thanks to Pete for a loan of his Trade Card!
