just been quoted £207.68 to change rocker gaskets + seals before i get it done just wanted to see if thats a fair price if not does any one know of any place in lincs that will do it cheaper

You could pm elite pete or darth loo knee as they offer mobile servicing for a cost comparison. One thing for sure though is that with either of these people you can be sure a good job will be done.

Do it yourself for under £65 on TC plus VAT ;) ;)
Or seek the help of our own Daz (Darth Loo Knee) ;) ;)

i was going to see if there was anyone on here who could do it but living in deepest darkest lincolnshire thought it might be a bit of a trawl unless there fairly local

I suppose it depends where you can get it done. There is a good independent garage near to me that only charges £35 hr, so if you find somewhere similar, i imagine they'd be able to get the parts for trade price aswell. Say price 207 minus 65 is 142. Say four hours work, it shouldn't take them that long. But i suppose it depends on your labour price.
Do it yourself, save some cash and learn about your car! :y

Bare in mind that if you get someone who doesn't know what they're doing, you'll be forking out twice to re-do the job. :y

oh yeah make sure you/they clean out the breather system aswell so the gaskets don't blow in the future
-
2-3 hours is not unreasonable to do the job properly

when i first did mine, it took 3 hrs with a breather clean, I would hope a garage would be able to do it quicker!
