Hello All again,

I've always had the misconception that Dealers ALWAYS cost more than auto-parts stores, and for the most part its true, but this is twice now it hasn't.




This is true, but only if the part is available through other sources.
If it's a part you can only get from the dealer look out!
i.e. DPFE - $140, EGR Soilenoid vavle - $40
if you look at the DPFE there's not much to it.
Looks like the same amount of plastic and electrical parts in both pieces.
$16/spark plug for the V6

Glad your getting off easy for your repairs.
Oh and about Sparta, don't worry if your car is stock
you will still run close times as us and it's fun!
