Stay away as much as possible from the repair place in California, he does the wrong grinding/filing job:
Why you shouldn't file/sand the plunger of the green Chinasolenoid but replace it - PentaxForums.com
Particular with the K-70 I'd take no risk.
Me and others came across many officially repaired Pentax bodies which got again the green solenoid.
But less so with the later version and yet, I had recently the 2-nd K70 which had been repaired on warranty and it developed the same problem again.
So if you still have warranty, then go for it.
But if not, find the white Japan-Solenoid, the ONLY real solution:
Pentax K-30 K-50 K-70 K-S1/S2 K-500 Genuine White Solenoid Part - Japan - | eBay
As for the DA55-300: If the PLM version, then it won't use the solenoid, so pictures are fine.
If any of the pre-PLM versions you should have the same problems.
The DIY repair is pretty easy if you just follow each step and particulare the steps about the AF-M switch.
I have myself repaired 2 x the K70 and several K-S2's which are aside of the position of 1 screw identical.
It is the best solution, because you always get the green solenoid built in (or even filed / sanded by some official places in EU)
