Hi,
To be honest it is hard to tell because so many of these dealerships just over charge constantly. I live in Mass and have worked in dealerships in Mass., New Hampshire, and Rhode Island and this is pretty standard around here.
The book says it takes 2.3 hours. to remove and replace the pump.
Then topping of the coolant and bleeding any air from the system, another .5 hr.
The last dealer I worked at charged $110.00/hour.
I’m at a little over $300.00.
Plus, any fees or taxes, coolant etc.
They are from what it sounds like to me charging you to do the whole water pump job. I would buy a torque wrench and do it yourself. Then you will have that tool for the next project. I have included a tightening sequence with corresponding torque specs.
When you are shopping for a torque wrench get one around $100.00 or more. Get a good one to make sure it is accurate and will stay accurate. Also get a click type not the beam type. The picture I included is a click type torque wrench.
Here is a video about torque wrenches for your information:
