Yes there is a specialist garage near by who said he would have a look at it for me, so trying to find a day when the weather is going to be good is another issue!
He also said that he hasn't done one for quite some time and they will have to try and dig the tools out to do the job.
I have ordered the parts anyway so they should be here this week, so I'll make the decision tomorrow to book it in with him.
Thanks again.
