Dmf Conversion To Smf

[Ateeq]

Hi, everybody. I have been reading the toyota forums a long time and found a lot of stuff usefull. I have a 54 Avensis d4d 2.0. I have bought a single mass conversion kit as it needs replacing, after talking to the local mechanic (with 30 years experience) the mechanic was not too keen to fit in the conversion kit. He said he will ring the main dealer up and ask if its possible, and also said he will take no responsibility if it dont work properly.I am from the greater manchester area (Ashton-Under-Lyne), so is it a good idea to convert it and is there anyone Locally who has done the conversions before, any recomendations. I have been quoted £180 for the job because ive known him a long tym. Please can i have your expertise advice. Thankyou and hope to hear from you soon.

180 is very good price for this sort of job I reckon.

My brother in law lives in Manchester and he had done it on his VW Passat (06) with only 42K on it recently.

Well he was charged 750 including spare parts and converting DMF --> SMF.

I think I have read it previously that it is possible and therefore too many SMF for avensis on the market.

£180 is just labour, i paid about £300 for the kit itself

they are going for 200 on eBay...well still reasonable compared to passat. best of luck.
