Its not just Claas!!

Repair costs are beginning to break me.

What annoys me more than anything is having to buy a whole assembly when only a small part is needed.

We had that recently on a JD steering valve , one of the 3 solenoids was playing up ( that could have probably been purchased elsewhere for peanuts) but no we had to have a complete valve block . Fitted was about 5k .

Why would you think a part like that be anything other than expensive?
It’s not a wearing part or something they’ll sell many of

I’ve no idea. But you need it and they’ve got it.
As always supply and demand dictates the price

Backed my combine into a trailer and it bent the chopper hood,JD want £1k just for a small 1' square plate and best part of 4k for the top plate on the chopper hood.
Had a lump of concrete about a size of a small football go into the header and its bent the auger and ripped a hole in it 17k for a new 25' auger, doesn't include fitting.
Just had a set of filters for the 6190R over £300.
They rang twice to ask if they could come and service it....
Really thinking now SFI is the way forward.
