Ive researched what I can on this site and believe I have an issue with my "Electric plate" I believe its called. the dealer is trying to charge me $1750.00 for parts and labor saying they have to remove transmission valve body to access the speed sensor in the transmission. they say its $900 in parts alone.
Is anyone aware of a good independant shop I can repair my car at in the Orange Co CA area?
Any help provided will be much appreciated
Rip off!
These 'electrical plates' cost about $200 max for non OEM parts. I had one go, the car went into limp mode and the car was fixed under warranty, they rebuilt or replaced a solenoid. I'm sure that if it was not a warranty job they would have sold me a new one.
The solenoids (6) on top cost about $20 each and are replaceable, they probabbly are selling you the whole lot, plate, solenoids and speed sensor etc.
No big deal, they will remove the valve body as it is mounted on the inside face of it.
