Louis 0 Posted March 14, 2015 I'm looking for one of these please in good working order. Mine failed in Dec last year, bought a "reconditioned" one off eBay for an eye watering price which also failed shortly after having been driven. Then sent my original one off for reconditioning to J&L in Rochdale mid Jan. They told me 2 weeks...I'm still waiting. Several phone calls later & I've lost my patience. If anyone else is reading this don't send it to them they're complete time wasters I urge you to try someone else, it's gone past the point of me being able to forgive them. Rant over, anyone got a working spare for a decent price? I'm £350 in on 2 master cylinders so far & the car is still off the road. I'm fed up. I'd need it before summer ideally as that's when I anticipate this lot will finally get round to sending mine back! Seriously, next week would be amazing though.

dragon green 5 Posted March 14, 2015 You should have sent it to http://www.pastparts.co.uk/ J&l take a lifetime,I've got a past parts recon unit on mine,seems better then the original Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Louis 0 Posted March 15, 2015 Yep I called them in the first place & they said no. Since found out they do them, think they were put off by the word ABS. Seems people assume they're the cylinder & pump in one deal. How much did past parts charge & how long did it take? Tempted to send the eBay one off to them now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Louis 0 Posted March 15, 2015 Do you know that they work properly & what price are you asking? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lilfuzzer 1 Posted March 15, 2015 As far as I know they all were. How about since you had trouble let me know which one u want I'll send it and if ok then you can pay for it ( obviously an agreed price before I send it) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Louis 0 Posted March 15, 2015 Sounds like a plan. Well from an aesthetic point of view I'd take the least rusty one, which looks like no.2 or 3? I'll prob wire brush & Hammerite it first. If you could get it to me asap that'd be great I don't mind paying extra for quick postage. I'll try to get it fitted in the week if poss. What price you thinking? I haven't seen a second hand one for sale before. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
