After running around with my dealer and my truck being there for two weeks now they have finally decided its the cam phasers causing the problem. They quoted me $2500 to replace them! I know its a pretty frequent thing so my question is how much have some of you guys paid? Ive looked at the how to article on this and though its way more than i want to take on it doesnt appear to be $2500 worth of work. Thanks for the help.

 

nobody?

 

Had mine done about 4 months ago . I think i paid about 1300 for the back side. My total bill was 1600. Had a solenoids replaced. Plus plugs changed - basic maintenance.

 

I changed both of mine myself.....Got lucky and found one updated phaser NIB on ebay, the other I ordered from the dealer. Total was about $200 and a few hours of my time. Luckily its not my only vehicle so I could take my time.

 

So you had to go around and around for a couple of weeks for them to find out the cam phasers are bad? That's a pretty simple diagnosis. Something doesn't sound right here. I'd get a second opinion after hearing that from the service adviser.
