sounds to me theyre telling the truth about the leak source but like all dealers they charge about 120-150 /hr including the time they spend at home, on lunch, on the crapper and on vacation plus a ridiculous amount for crap parts that are gonna fail again. Do urself a favor and quit visiting stealershits then go see mr hagg and let him give u a permanent fix for the governments ongoing diesel engine sales scheme. Or is it a failed environmental experiment? Hmmm. Either way, its my understanding he can achieve passing emissions without the bs. Go spend ur $ on something that lasts and get them wheels turning.
