replace left hand rear diff out put seal 1605.31

turbo leaking oil 82.50

front brake pads 236.04

total $4162.97

my plan is to

go em for warranty I haven't touched the turbo or the manifold or the timing cover , I have increased power so I might leave out the diff

and the bushes wont be covered anyway and ill do the brakes my self .ill get Aitkenvale auto and dyno to do the rest they said itll be about 800-1000 to do the diff

so what does everyone think of the prices they quoted I think its very expencive

and could some one please tag a link on hear so I can have a look at whats involved in resealin the timing belt cover

thanks you

That list of repairs you have is common to these vehicles modified or not. Wheather they will cover it under warranty is another thing.Take it to someone who specializes in these cars with your list and get another quote.

timing cover oil leak is the only one that warranty will touch.

$858 for a broken turbo manifold bolt?

I guess it's not just the bolt they're replacing?

I'd be asking them to fix the turbo oil leak, and, while they're down there to put in a new bolt?

Bummer about the diff bushes, I had mine replaced the other month as I found there was excessive backlash when accelerating and then backing off.

While they were there they found the diff cover leaking, so they popped that off, replaced the gasket goo and added new fluid.

Was all covered under warranty fortunately
