Just this week I had timing belt,(also changed external belts) valve cover gaskets (at his suggestion, water pump), and a cracked exhaust pipe replaced for $1500.... which I consider a wild bargain compared to dealer prices (Lexus), but the shop is in Huntersville. Car has 165k miles, had been leaking oil, maintenance had been grossly deferred except for oil changes.
