My Makita SDS is a couple of years old and has been a good workhorse,
especially recently when I've been digging out concrete with it but it
has just started to leak grease round the chuck

I decided to do something before the drill seized up and sent it back
to Makita for servicing. I was quoted £14 plus parts and postage for
the service which I thought was very reasonable

Yesterday a box turned up containing a brand new replacement drill
from Makita

Cant ask for better service!

Indeed not. Where did you send it?

Could be worth trawling car boot sales for old ones :)

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Tansy...@freeukisp.co.uk (Anna
Kettle) saying something like:

Bosch did that for me a few years back when the reversing switch went
phut on a drill. Took me by surprise, given the drill was well out of
warranty.
