    Dealer said Charge is about 550$. Isn't the coolant replaced when the valve is changed?

    I don't know if the dealer will do it (even if it says they should do it).......It's all about saving time. The faster they finish, the more money they can make. Many have said, they clamp the hoses and not change the fluid.

    I would shop around, check dealer coupons. Mine was $210 labor $135 parts a couple years ago. I assume they just clamped off the hoses but who knows.

    I suspect you will find a lot in SD. Check the club forum section.
