Hi Kateland, not very expensive from memory. Parts cost about £15 to £20. Not a difficult job to do just fiddly. Best to get a quote or two before you decide.
Problem is of course, we don`t know for sure if it will solve the problem, but its a case of eliminating things.
Another cause could be the coils. Again about £20 each (there is 4 of them) fitted in about 15 mins.
Like I say, get some quotes.
Best of luck
