Re: Help Pls - if it is allowed - thoughts on repair costs
I dont use repair shops so I can only estimate what parts cost would be to DIY.
new monroe shocks can be had for $20 each at autozone or other auto part store. again if you arent noticing a problem with the ride you can leave the shocks alone. any mild auto repair center that does brakes and oil changes (like tuffy or meinecke)would probably do it for $100
the Mounts and heater core could be done with $100 and an afternoon in the garage.
in a shop those 2 would probably ding you a grand.
Highly recommend taking to a reputable shop (or 2) and outline your concerns.
-coolant smell
-motor mounts
By you telling them what needs looked at you can (hopefully) avoid them trying to find everything under the sun thats "wrong"
without more info on the oil leak I cannot say. could be a leaky valve cover or anything, dont know what "class 1" stands for.
again good luck
