1 filter @ forgot to ask
1 service dipstick @ $54

1 trip to dealership to clear codes @ no idea

So far looking to be around $600 with taxes and shipping plus tow truck ride and dealership cost.

Sound about right?
Friggin bargain for someone who ran a 722.6 175k while being oblivious to the risks of non-maintenance! To back up and look at it from 1000ft, a conductor plate (and a TCM for that matter) are pretty typical repairs during that time period, even if the fluid and filters were done every 30k!
