I purchased one about 2 yrs ago. It took a little over 30 days to get it. Some of the parts are from Germany and hard to get in a timely manner.

thanks for your response I’m been thinking the worst but how do you feel about it. Functionality, difficulty level of installation and accuracy of the fluid level

I believe it took over 2 months to get mine. They aren't quick but are a quality product. Makes it easier to do a drain and fill.
No difficult to put it on my '98

wow two months. I guess I would feel better if they had bothered to answer my messages to say anything to me. Bad business imo

I had a hard time installing. I'm 70 yrs old and don't have access to a lift so it was on jack stands. I had some leaking at the threads but fixed that with Loctite 545 thread sealant.

Apologies for the thread bump / resurrection but I was wondering if you ever received your dip stick parts? I have been waiting for mine for about 20 days and haven't heard anything. Any luck with yours?

thank you!

I’m interested to hear if you get yours, I could really use one of these for my XJ8 but I’ve not had any response from the email address I’ve been sending enquires to. I’d really like to be able to add fluid in a more convenient way, the factory way is so stupid it’s not even funny.

Today makes 39 days and five emails with zero response. Given what I have read elsewhere this seems normal?!? I am going to give it a little bit longer then ask PayPal to refund. I agree that the refill procedure is absurd but I also don't want to delay this service much longer. I will post back if and when I hear something.

Thank You, I’m interested in one but I’d need to know I’m getting the product. It’s a bit bad no one replies, I’m surprised there aren’t more people making these things.

Did you ever get anything? I really want to find a solution to the ridiculous filling process, if this guy is bust I’ll see about getting my own made.
