Does your car have a single row or double row timing chain?

Motor mounts (including the tranny mount?) and shift linkage bushings numbers seem high relative to the work involved. They could be fair numbers but as DIY jobs they require more common sense than skill or knowledge. IMHO, these sound more like 300E numbers for those jobs.

Overall, that's a good amount of work for $2000 but see if they'll address nagging items like sticky window switches and maybe some small maintenance items like a brake fluid flush. You'll shell out as much for a transmission rebuild or front suspension work.
