My local Ford dealer has given me an estimate of $2,044 to replace the "EGR Cooler" on my 2004 6.0 Diesel. Does that sound like a fair price or should I seek another repair source. Thanks-

The EGR cooler is located on top of the engine underneath the intake. The turbo has to be removed along with everything else on top of the engine. It is a pretty extensive repair and if the cooler is being replaced, that adds some $$ to the cost of repair. Welcome to the wonderful world of the 6.0 DI. The estimate is pretty close.

Labor guide calls for 6.5 hrs of labor plus the part.
