It does seem kinda high? Are they doing a transmission flush or a drain and fill? I know the oil can be pretty pricey since it is a synthetic oil that goes in the transmission? The software upgrade may or may not work as well? The upgraded software is for General Shift Quality 2-3 Flare, especially when cold or after Highway Driving 3-2 Power-On Downshift Quality, after coast down
Power-On Downshift Response. If I were you I would only do the upgrade and to be honest be prepare to replace the transmission. As for the other question what part are you talking about?
