Nikon 500MM F4 AF squeal

[robmac]

Had the lens for years and its squeaked for a few years but never bothered me and I half heartedly advertised it but I think im going to keep it now,Anyone know a place to have it done and a guesstimate on price?
thanks.

Usual places are with Nikon UK or maybe try Lehmann Bro's in Stoke. No idea on price I'm afraid as when I had my 400mm f/2.8 the VR unit was replaced under warranty. My 500mm made a tiny noise and it never bothered me but I did think as years were passing spares are going to be harder to come by so I sold mine. They are superb lens though and always gave me very sharp images.
