Title: Cam Follower & DV - Recommend a London garage
Post by: prp74 on April 01, 2013, 03:08:52 pm

Guys,

Been reading about the Cam follower and DV and wish to get these replaced. Can anyone recommend a place in the Harrow, London area to get these done as I'm not to technical and would rather it get done proper. Also how much would I expect to pay for the parts and labour?

Any advice/recommendation much appreciated.

No advice on place to go.

However, I'd guage about 30-60mins for each, the latter being more than enough.  I did the Follower myself (1st time) in 35 minutes and I really took my time to make sure I did everything correctly.
So 2 hours absolute maximum for both; infact that's probably too much.  1hr 30 mins maximum.

I got quoted £60ish by JKM for the cam follower fully fitted, done the dv myself would have thought around the same again at a fair price independent.
