I got a price from my local shop for installing head studs bullet proof egr cooler and a new oil cooler for 5500 is this high?

 

Is that with them suppling parts or labor only?

 

That's parts and all

 

Well parts maybe 1000 that leaves 4500 for labor sounds a little high to me but i'am no expert, maybe somebody that knows a little more will chime in and give some input.

 

That's about right if they are supplying all the parts.

 

i had new oil cooler , egr delete, arp's, ford head gaskets , blue spring update , coolant flush and new fuel and oil filters and oil all for about 3400 including parts, i purchased all of the parts myself and the tech at the dealership did it for me on the weekend.. i live in nc

 

Wow people around where I live don't do the diesel thing so this shop is my only option

 

Where do you live?

 

I had studs, oil cooler and a couple of other things done on my 03 and it was $3100.00 and that was parts and labor.

 

I live in north west ga about 30 miles south of Chattanooga If I could get all that done for around 3500 bucks I would do it right now

 

3500 is not unheard of. That really is probably closer to average. If the shop will let you buy the parts it will save you a lot of money. See how much there labor is and go from there.

 

the last ones I have done were around $2500 and customer supplied the parts.
