What's actually going on

The cause

Dried thermal paste and a heatsink packed with dust. On machines 3+ years old it's almost always this.

How we fix it

Teardown, heatsink cleaning, fresh paste and pads where needed. 40 minutes, almost no parts — the best-value repair there is.

How much it costs

It depends on the model and on what we find inside, so we quote each repair individually. The diagnosis fee depends on the device, and you approve the exact repair price before any repair starts. If it can't be fixed, you only pay the diagnosis.
