Unfortunately that is about right for a dealer. If you can put up an email address I'll explain how I got mine done. Hence why fitting the MAS at the same time is a common option in order to save the labour bill.

Thanks for that r2, it's [email protected]
May have just found someone cheap, but it seems to get to be true now after getting quotes of around 300 just from specialists... :s

We charge just under one hours labour for this job £44+vat

 

[jameshaydon]

just had the same quote from another specialist, where about are you please?

Many thanks

That is about the right price for a dealer mate
That might include putting the car on the Star Machine to delete the EML fault codes.

In short no.The hose is in a hidden away place.
