I've got a fax from Col Crawford that lists all the items. Form memory Dave's list looks a bit short. But it's the 40K service I want minus some bits and pieces (I'd hate them to put a stock air filter on my SC).
I also won't be surprised if they hit me for extra because of the SC.

The full list is much longer.

Would it be worthwhile hitting them up for a GB? Something to keep in mind.
Oh and they quoted me $790 for the 80K
Id hate to see what Col Crawford and those boys charge for that one.
Sorry too lazy to edit

Buffy's brother has started a mobile service company and he is a very good mechanic. I think I'll get him over and do the service with him one evening.
After he's done mine I'll let you know how it turns out.

Hmmm, just got quote in from Tynans for 40k service...$833 
..Was told it should be done at 24months as all fluids are replaced and should be replaced at 24mths.....Collins was $750.....But mine has only done 40k in 4 years....

Like I'd have much luck claiming anything engine or drivetrain on warranty anyway! 
I can do the majority of the service myself with the exception of the tappets. I'd rather have someone experienced do them the first time.
