[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1806897, member: 396914"] Might be interesting to contact them, as they offer, and ask if they know anyone that DOES service the 2011 model. But if you are selling it now, no reason to spend the time. I think I've seen a video somewhere that someone is fixing a 2011. Same capacitor, but they replaced it with a more robust one that should not be as susceptible to failure. Also didn't require scraping the MoBo to get to a solder pad as the pads were in the same place as the defective one. Maybe that's why they don't service the 2011? [/QUOTE]
