That is a big job, and a higher hourly rate than I would have expected - what's the Lexus rate then? (Need to check my old invoices, I can't remember it being so high!)

Didn't the Saab 9-5 Areo have to have the engine out to do the timing cover also?
A hell of a lot of work though for a small repair.
