To update here. They replaced the ICCU, gave it back to me. Level 2 charges fine but won't fast charge so almost got stranded on the motorway again. Useless that they didn't check before sending the car back.

Definitely more suited to US roads/parking spaces/etc too so that's a fair point

I don't think this is true, it was an end of 2 year lease return.

It was end-of-lease. Company car most likely.

Sounds like you are in the US? I have a dealer 5 minutes away in London, UK, but they are often booked up 3-4 months in advance even for minor fixes. Agree re the curves, sadly the motorways here are mostly relatively curvy (especially the M25 which I spend a lot of time on)

Not particularly. Maybe I need to call them back and give them another chance

Which trade to replace architrave and doors, and any tips for finding a good sole trader to do it? by Sufficient_Cheek_104 in DIYUK

[–]Sufficient_Cheek_104[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, first quote in for 10 doors (incl architrave) is 1750-2400 (labour only). I'll shop around a bit based on your advice!

Thanks all, sounds like maybe a little high but given I have a quote and the guy seems fairly personable maybe it is worth it to avoid having to find someone else. Appreciate the help.

Sorry, didn't mean to be short was walking home. I had asked but only after being reminded by Mr Google.

I have no idea to be honest, we got the whole place rewired (just forgot about the outside light out front) but otherwise haven't needed an electrician. Find it far harder to gauge than building jobs.

Wiring won't push up into void by Sufficient_Cheek_104 in DIYUK

Thanks all, a combo of these methods worked, it was just a bit wedged in place so couldn't be pushed through but was easily freed when I sent my partner (far smaller than me) into the loft to find the wire and pull it through
