OK How much should i expect to pay to have the seals replaced on the oil cooler housing, i dont fancy laying under the 944 right now, and cant borrow a ramp any time soon, so how much is a realistic price to pay a Porsche specialist to do this job ?

Yes Barrie trained at Motor Tune at Shotts in Glasgow on 924, 944 & 928 as well as 911 fodder, these were a big Porsche dealer. They do Porsche & Dancing donkey's & seem pretty switched on, either them or OPC (Porsche Centre) Tonbridge. If you're a TIPEC member then you'll get a discount at OPC.
