Ard, the dealer said that on avg. the cost should be about 1300 and max 2400. They sent it to me in an email, so somewhat of a written proof, but it is not a diagnosis. I am not sure if I should take the car back to them for the DMTL pump replacement, the way they have tried to rip me.
Anywayz, so the Indy took out the VANOS solenoids and swapped them, should give an idea if indeed one of them is bad, the fault will switch from intake to exhaust. BTW, found a DIY video on it and seems to be a fairly easy thing to do.
Now the Indy is recommending replacing valve cover gasket, eccentric shaft sensor seal and thrust arm bushing, all for a mere $900, majority of that is labor. I am thinking I might just try to do the valve cover gasket on my own. Found a DIY video on it, and seems to be pretty straightforward. Anyone else tried doing it on their own? Experiences?
