Fair Price for this Work?
So I ran into some problems with my 2003 E320 and I need to have some work done. I received a quote for the work and I was wondering if you think these are fair prices (prices include parts and labor, located in CA if that makes a difference):
Replace Ignition Swith Assembly - $1,090
Replace Thrust Link Bushings - $325
Replace Transmission 13-Pin Electrical Connector and perform Transmission Service - $264
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I dont know how handy you are, but the tranny connector is something you can do yourself. It's a simple disconnect and reconnect. I;m guessing one hour of labor + part charged. It takes about 5 minutes. Thrust arm bushings need to be pressed in, so you need them to do that - seems reasonable. I dont know about the ignition switch.
Can you let us know what went wrong? I'm having trouble with my tranny too but i've changed everything and it still dont work lol.
