after giving the car a good boot on sunday up the east lancs I thought that I had blown the manifold.had a bloke in ashton take a look yes the maifold had gone price £150 to £250 ,then went to the jap man in St helens who said no it was the turbo gasket £450 because the gasket cost £ 60 each.called middlehurst asked want price for these gaskets £11.68 each asked them to look at the job to give me they advice and cost said go to grasshopper.who the f*ck do you trust going to take it to kwik fit and ask them to look at the exhaust cost £0 then will find out if it is the exhaust or turbo gaskets.because we have a Z do they think we are made of money :xxx: :xxx:

£60 for turbo gastkets?

 

bought turbo gasket kits for that much which consisted of all the gaskets on both turbos for about £60

Not being fussy here, but shouldn't this be in Help & Advice?

He doesnt seem to be asking for any advice. Seems to be giving an account of his experiences on garages with his car.

OK then, just thought I would ask! LOL :)
