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.

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.

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.
