After the drama's with my auto I looked @ my trans cooler which reminded me of my woes with my radiator.
Long story short top plastic tank split leaving Woolongong on a sat morning no chance of repair so the search started
Found a spares shop "qoute" got one for a manual just fit a trans cooler so I bought one of them get back to my cousins pull the old one out nothing like the man one GRRRR
go back mon morning I'll have to check the supplier go home 2pm no call back ring him he finally says yeah they have one but can't get it here till tomorrow afternoon I ask can I go pick it up (in Sydney) he asks yeah here's the address off we go pick it up right one good on the way home I unpack the invoice

Genuine you don't want to know BIG $
aftermarket 460-600 I paid 460 + the cooler
invoice to the spares shop $127
I got no joy from the shop
So you have to ask who's ripping who off :mad:

Mark up can be up to x 1000 % or more on some items. Shops blame the Internet. I blame greed.
