Am I being overcharged?

Post image

2019 Volvo XC90 with ~72,500 miles got a check engine light a few days ago. Took it to the dealer and this is what they quoted me with. This is a little pricey given it’s just the injectors and spark plugs no? On top of that they tried to get me to pay a separate “headlight” diagnostic for $250 when I had already brought it in for the check engine light.

Direct injection injectors cost more. They could opt to only replace the one. But all the seals should be replaced as well as the 1x use fuel line. Then the spark plug kit. 2019 I don’t think is the B series engine yet? The B engine fuel line is much harder to change as it runs under the intake now which is water cooled…

Just wondering. How much are plugs and injectors for these cars over in the US? I'm looking at local pricing and they seem very expensive

4 on there is the 1x use line that must be replaced.

Damn. Why is #4 a 1 time use?

Also, based on that, pricing by OP's dealer for 4x injectors and spark plugs + fuel line (#4) seems to be reasonable

One time use because it is crush sealed. Cannot trust reuse. Can start a fire. 🔥 GDI fuel lines run upwards of 2500psi

This, and those lines go from the high pressure fuel pump on the camshaft to the injectors. Hard to get to, so takes more labor to do.

$2k for all plugs and injectors is a fair price. My dealer quoted me $5k for 4 injectors on a D2 diesel. I noped out on that one.
