According to my mechanic, it was a pretty easy job to grease up the valve hinges.

Thanks arne, it's got to be worth a try. £1400 for a couple of creaking hinges seems a bit excessive.

And there's the difference, main dealers don't have mechanics, they have fitters.

But from there point of view, it's better to have the customer pay through the nose for a new part, that's the manufacturer's responsibility, rather than try to make a repair only for it to fail and have the customer returning, complaining about shoddy workmanship.

But I still agree with what you said :)
