    Can anyone in AZ (Phoenix area, ideally Chandler) recommend a shop/mechanic to install a used ABS actuator? Mine is apparently toast and not covered in any manner. At 7 years old and 100K miles, I have no interest in paying $2500(ish) to fix it unless there's no alternative.

    Thanks, Doug

    Based on feedback from AZguyM, I had a used actuator (eBay, $150 shipped w/ lifetime warranty) installed by Tony Tran in Phoenix (Tran's Auto Repair 602-841-5662). Dropped the car and part off yesterday afternoon, it is back home now for about $600 total outlay (dealer diagnostic, used part, labor, a bit more for a complete flush/refill of brakes). Woohoo!
