Several days ago, the CEL on my '00 S went off.

I thought it was just an oxygen sensor but instead, the local dealer found that there was a crack near the base of the tube that leads from the oil filler to the engine. This causes air to enter into the engine. Replacement cost $ 450.00

Along with that, the dealer also found the rear axle's CV boots cracked $ 650.00, gas cap mechanism $ 150.00, rear deck console lid's hinges retrofit kit $ 110.00, brake flush $ 99.00 (summer special).

Are these repair prices reasonable?
