£225 for pads, trade
£200 for 'diff service'
Sheesh, they saw you coming
Was that Mitsubishi? robbing fecks charged me £100 a few years ago for an AYC fluid change. I do it myself now.
I had (a supplied) new rear diff fitted, new gear oil, new AYC cluth bath fluid, new AYC pump fluid and AYC bleed for £90 form an Evo specialist! I do the AYC clutch bath change myself for about £7! just get the stuff from Mitsubishi or dexron III atf from motorfactors.
I do like the S4's and may well have one in the future. I'm suprised they are cheaper to run! I suppose I've steered clear of Mitsubishi dealers mostly and there's a specialist evo garage near me that's very cheap.
