is Rockhampton too far?
We have a very good vw mechanic up here if that helps, can give you his name and number too if you like

ah rocky is a little far but i gues not. I am after somebody to replace main seal, push rods and push rod seals or a price on it.. my mechanic wants to charge me 800 bucks and is taking a good month with nothing done on it.

800 bux would be almost it!
take engine in and out
+ if he is going to pull the heads off to replace the tubes that would be 800 but inc parts

PM sent days ago.
Can do the job near Cooroy if you want.

0408 704 662

$800 is not an unrealistic price including parts. I wouldn't pay any more than that, as long as the job was done very well, no oil leaks and quality parts were used. The job could be done in a couple of days if parts are ready.

I paid $275 for rear main seal replaced, including Elring German seal. That is taking engine out to do it.
