Dealer is telling me that the wire on cylinder 6 has gone bad and needs to be replaced and that the diagnosis and replacement will total $235 bucks or so. I don't have any of my LR stuff with me at work, could someone tell me which cylinder #6 is,when looking at the engine from in front of the car. I am trying to figure out why it would cost 2 hours labor to diagnosis and replace a burnt wire, unless it is one in the back where you have to remove the intake. Thanks for your help. Chris |

Bastards! They should have charged you around $85 for the diagnosis and labor to install the wire. The price for one wire should be around $10-12 |

Jaime, I agree! They charged me 2 hours labor plus parts, comes out to around 235 or so. Teaches me to not take it in so soon, I should have looked more closely but with the history of my car with valve jobs I just assumed it was that again. Thanks for your help as well Robbie. Chris |
