Title: Is there a duo repairman who would sell me a cap kit for my duo?
Post by: SavePointVG on May 24, 2012, 10:31:42 AM
Trying to save a little time and money hoping that someone who bulks caps in bulk would sell me a kit needed to repair 1 duo.  Thanks!

Sure is.  We have a few here that order caps in large quantities.  BlueBMW, thesteve, and I think chop does as well.

Don't mean to hijack, but I'd be interested in this as well if somebody around here regularly sells kits.

They dont actually sell kits, BUT, do order caps in large quantities, so they do part some out from time to time to folks wanting to do the job themselves. :)

Ah, well I wouldn't want to impose if they only stock up for their own repair work.

I doubt they see it as imposing.  The buy in bulk to get them cheaper, and to have many in stock.  The guys are constantly sending caps, lasers, ect. back and forth to each other.  One of em will surely chime in here at some point.

BlueBMW sent out a cap kit promptly & packed well. A very good deal, thanks! It will be quite a while until I get around to installing it (especially since my TD is working fine now--this is a preventative measure, not a repair effort), but I'm confident that everything is well in order with this transaction.

Thanks, BlueBMW!
