I joined this forum because I have a dilemma. I own a 1997 Nissan Maxima that I love. I have taken very good care of it and have kept all of the scheduled maintenance appointments. I took it to the dealer for the 75,000 mile interval maintenance service and was told that my timing chain was leaking oil. They recommended that the timing chain cover should be resealed. I was quoted a price of $1,500!!! They said that the cost would be mostly for labor because the service entailed taking the engine apart. Needless to say, I want to get a second or third opinion first. Was I quoted a fair price? I know next to nothing about the inner workings of cars. Is this dealership trying to rip me off?
