LG Gram Pro Repair — your questions answered
How much does an LG Gram Pro OLED screen replacement cost in Australia?
Replacement of the Samsung Display OLED panel in the 16-inch or 17-inch Gram Pro currently ranges from $1,400 to $1,900 fitted. The part carries a 5-7 day lead time and includes a 90-day warranty on both parts and labour.
Can you reflow the RTX 3050 in an LG Gram Pro or does the board need replacing?
We perform a controlled BGA reflow on the RTX 3050 with a 60-70% success rate for cracked-solder faults. If the reflow does not hold we move to board replacement; you are only charged if the repair succeeds under our no-fix-no-fee policy.
Is thermal repasting worth doing on a 2024 LG Gram Pro used for video editing?
Creator workloads push the Core Ultra 9 hard; a full clean and repaste with Honeywell PTM7950 is recommended at the 24-month mark and costs from $220. Most units regain full sustained turbo speeds after the service.
Why does my LG Gram Pro show 0% battery even when it has charge?
This is usually a failed battery management system inside the 80 Wh pack. We replace the complete sealed battery module for $290-$380; the new pack is matched and the BMS is programmed to the original serial number.
Do you offer onsite repair for LG Gram Pro laptops in Sydney and Melbourne?
Yes. Our technicians can attend your home or office for software diagnostics and selected hardware jobs. Board-level work such as GPU reflow or OLED replacement is completed in our workshop with insured courier collection.
