Marcus,
welcome from me, too, although myself I´m rather a newbie in this community
(still owing all of you an introduction - forthcoming soon, promise)
I think most of the 55 S17 owner still find some very helpful tips on your Homepage to solve some Iveco homemade mistakes on their cars.
Along these lines, I´ve already printed your excellent paper on the Telma EMR
system as I´m, too, quite concerned about our cars´ somewhat underpowered
braking system.
So I touched base with Telma/UK for prices, who then referred me to a german
distributor, who in turn didn´t consider himself a distributor, however, and
referred me onwards to a company in Strasbourg (Welte Cardan Service). So,
I´m on for a phone call with them, tomorrow. And, NO, I don´t think I shall
bother any of the Iveco subsidiaries ´round here with this endeavour ...
In the meantime, Marcus, can you give me an idea of the cost involved in fitting
the electro-retarder to a 55S18W ? As you did all the work yourself, you´d
probably only know about parts pricing - wages would be different across UK
and Germany anyways - any idea on the number of work hours required ?
Thank you in anticipation & best regards
Hans-Joachim
