FlashLube liquid refill prices

#1 Post by jaafar »

Dear Forum Members:
I converted my car a month ago. Honda Accord 2.0 liter sport. with flashlube system. best price I can find in the UK is Tinley Tech. for a 5 liter its £65(inclusive VAT) plus £7.50 delivery. £ 72 in total.
I ordered from Germany for a total charges of 75 Euro inclusive of VAT and delivery to the UK. I was charged £63 from my paypal account.
Have you come across better prices?
Best wishes

I think tinley tech are flashlube uk. So odds are they will be the cheapest. Ive not found cheaper in the uk. I think the jlm stuff can be found cheaper. But im not sure how you would stand warranty wise.

Thank you Tubbs. what put me off Tinley Tech is the delivery charge.
Lets see how the Germans got on with their delivery.
Will keep the forum updated

£7.50 for something that weighs 5kg plus packaging to ensure it doesn't leak seems reasonable to me. How much were you expecting postage to cost, out of interest?

Tinley Tech are excellent but I think what he probably means is it's expensive compared to europe postal charges. I sometimes order lpg parts from Germany to England and the postage is less than uk firms charge.
I don't know why we keep bending over and take it so easily in this country. We seem to pay what we are told without question in general.
Cheapest you can get 1 litre of valve lube is £15 odd posted from gasit.co.uk. They are on ebay or web.

Hi Indy:
the 5 liter flashlube fluid + VAT ( 19% in Germany ) + delivery came to £63.
Tinley Tech is £65 ( VAT at 20%) then on top of that some charges.
The stuff come from Australia. Why they sell it her more expensive than Germany?
If I shopped harder then I might find it cheaper but it amaze why the Germans are happy to ship the whole thing cheaper than shipping it from here( and selling it cheaper as well)
DPD is the shipping company.

Best wishes

FlashLube fluid 5L arrived today. very well packed and came via DPD
yes total cost including delivery is £ 63
I anticipate a fair use of it as I drive 1600- 1800 miles per month.

bought from this website:

http://www.lpgfuchs.com/additive/flashlube-5000.html

did not post this link earlier as I wanted to receive my order first. I did not want other forum members to get into trouble incase any thing goes wrong with my order but they appear to be very reliable and sent me regular emails.

Best wishes
