Brake booster repairs?

[Sinbad]

Can anyone recommend any shop for refurbing a brake booster from an ML merc for a reasonable price? Seems to have a small vacuum leak.
Randburg/Sandton area preferred but can travel a reasonable distance...

Cool they referred me to somewhere in Rivonia. R2200 to refurb it. Sounds expensive, until you find a new part from MB is R8800

Why they couldn't do it? I guess R2,200 is your best bet then. Or import one from the UK if you don't need that car urgently. Dealer's here are ridiculous. They want R1,800 for a water hose for the Grand Cherokee. :erm:

He said he sends all his boosters to this guy.

Prices overseas are just as mental - USD700 or so. Looks like it's an OEM only part, no "generics" available. The merc parts I've bought here haven't been too bad, in terms of international pricing. I had to replace the entire drivers door lock/striker/central locking assembly. They were about 200 pounds on ebay, got one from MB Sandton for R2500...
