How much does it cost to replace a cylinder and is it a difficult job?

about 60 quid for a new metal one, doable yourself in about half a day, second hand plastic ones about 40 quid, I got 2 if you want one PM me, but I would spend the extra and get the tazu metal one off this forum

Went up to Doncaster yesterday to see Andy and he fitted me a new master cylinder. Car is now back to the way it should be.

Have to say that Andy is a legend, been to see him a few times now for stuff that needed doing and he has always been so helpful. Even doing the master cylinder in the dark last night didn't stop him. Big thanks to Andy and to everyone on here who has helped me out since i joined the club.

Looking forward now to a stress free Christmas
