Basically I'm being told at a minimum the car requires a Catalytic Assembly (gasket and studs on lower flange), O2 sensor, DPFE sensor, and EVR sensor = $1220 for that stuff.
>> Start w/ O2 sensors and DPFE and EGR passages cleaning.
wait and see if cat code goes away. cat is the most expensive part there and it may be killed by your driving like that for a year but you may be lucky...
spark plugs and wires, air filter, fuel filter, pcv service, intake gaskets, r&r throttle body... = $743
>> I don't see how it becomes $743. Let's see plugs:20, wires:80 filter:10 pcv valve:3 gaskets: depending on what they're gonna do w/ the intake:40-60 plus labor is like 3 hours for everything... I dunno...
