Just got back from another Mazda/Mercedes dealership....quoted ne $2500 for everything inc oil pump chain.
Said I would have to put down a $1000 deposit.
I was more tempted to put a deposit on the white AMG C63 they had there

Whoa!
That seems like a outrageous price mate! I'm going to my local Mazda on Monday for a friendly chat, will let you guys know the outcome.
I think it depends if you need the works burger or not
I'm pretty sure the works burger isn't that much down here lol
He must be on the nest, he is soft like that! Lol I'm onto it.
Yeah yeah, Im on it lol
I would like to thank Mitch for completing the VVT and Timing Chain replacement yesterday.
I can vouch for his high level of expertise and professionalism, which made me very glad I went to him and not some "regular" mechanic. Not only did Mitch replace the parts in question, he also cleaned and inspected various components (such as the MAP sensor and hpfp assembly)
I would also like to thank him for his patience during the repair (I asked an endless amount of questions while he was working.)
@adz35 How'd you go mate?
I think mine might be a little lose too

hmmm, I'm gonna bump this cause I might need to be added to the list of Brisbane cars...Is this still going ahead Mitch @MPS2NV?
A gen 2 with a VVT fault?!
At at this stage no due to numbers and a more than likely hectic house move.
So far I believe @doug and teebag are making the trip to me for a weekend of "watch mitch swing spanners" with a date not yet proposed.. Your welcome to become part of that convoy! I can do 3 VVT jobs on a weekend and if bank is kind you could be the first Mps's in my new shed
Every man should have a V8 ute.....with a Chev badge.....and a Southern Cross sticker! Mods? What mods?
Sounds like this could be a goer...:P dare I ask....who is teebag? :-O
Edit: Never-mind I remember now @70DDD
