Any one know how major it is to fix - can I buy one and get a handyman (brother) to replace it or will it take an 'authorised' repairman to sort? Will be in Perth (Yanchep) in a couple o...

Probably need to have seen some time in the Green Machine to fully appreciate the above. So true it hurts!!!

This was a great drive mostly down the coast, for anyone who knows it was very much like the Great Ocean Road south of Geelong in Victoria.
