heaps more helpful than the shop in balcatta who told me "ah you might as well just come in and buy a new one mate" Bit of a contradiction to all the marketing that engel does saying that they last forever / indestructable etc...
But its not so easy up here to shop around. Still under warrantee so was surprised by the failed compressor. Went to the local and they would not accept the money Engel would pay, ie wouldnt honour the warrantee and tried to force me to sign a document saying I would cover any shortfall. Needless to say I went nuts and spke to Engel and next thing I know all's done.
Lesson learned and if not happy, speak to the big boys who was more than helpful. I do like the Midlamd Engel shop though, never a bad word heard.

Danfoss
Not sure on the cost Matt, but make sure they put a Danfoss not a cheaper brand compressor in

Matt ring the Engel Land in
Matt ring the Engel Land in Balcatta http://www.engeland.com.au/welcome.toy or Lyons in Kewdale. http://www.lyonsaircon.com.au/products.asp?cid=688 I have dealt with both and got fair prices from both. Most truckies use Lyons as they are in Kewdale and understand we need our fridges fixed fast.

I would never have picked
I would never have picked that...
one of them was more than happy to help offering to check the check the compressor for free (i was only after the power supply unit)
the other one was trying to tell me that its the old model and i shouldnt bother even fixin it just buy a new one ...
