Xbox 360: DVD DRIVE Broken/ Where to send

Hi all, my DVD drive on my 360 has given up the ghost.

it's apparently out of the warranty, and i'm too busy atm to strip it down and sort it out.

Anywhere i can send it too, drop it off too, that anyone has used before?

I'm based in Feltham Middlesex if thats any help for a local one.

where the hell did you see that you can do it without flashing it Laughing

Your console's main board and your DVD drive are both paired together by a 32 digit number, If those 2 numbers do not match, then the console will not work. You'd need to dump your drives key, and flash it onto the new drive.

If you send me just your drive, then If I don't have enough spares here to fix it I'll order you a new one from eBay.

Cost

Drives are around £23 delivered from Hong Kong ( if yours can't be fixed)
£20 to dump it then flash the new drive
then £5 recorded delivery.
