I kind of understand where you're coming from. I assume you're a mechanic? I've known the guys at my local garage for nearly 20 years now. I've given them plenty of work over in that time and often they've sourced the parts, often at surprisingly reasonable prices. On this occasion they quoted £460 for the labour & much the same for the parts. I asked whether they'd fit the DMF & clutch if I could source it for less n they were happy to do so. (Got both for £266 - LUK). Any business has the choice to take on work or not on the basis of whether they think it's worth their time or not. If they had said they weren't interested in the job I would have respected their decision n reviewed the situation accordingly.
