My mechanic wants to charge me 149.99 to replace he sensor while they are doing my oil change ($90 for the oil change). Does this sound about right?

Engine model? Year of vehicle? Put it in your profile, it saves asking.

That is reasonable if it includes the price of the part (based on the cost of the sensor for my 2003 3.0). If it is just labour, it seems high to me, as the oil is already out and the vehicle is in the air.

I changed my sensor myself today and it STILL does it. The harness to the sensor looks good too.
