Nox sensors replacement + regen - 10 hours of labor??

Need to know what engine and what the codes were.

 

How much of the 10 hrs is for diag? Ask for a breakdown of the time.

 

You are getting ripoff. Took me like 30 mins to replace my outlet Nox Sensor and that is including watching the Step by step tutorial on Youtube. The Inlet doesn't look look like to much work either. I say 3h max including regen.

 

Changing the sensor generally doesn’t take too long. If it’s a Detroit and they followed all the troubleshooting steps,then it can take time.

 

Depends on how hard it was to get out. Sometimes they have to cut the bung off and weld a new one on.

 

If the sensor broke off that'll be where the time went. Flat rate and book times are a very general guide and go out the window in less than ideal scenarios.

 

Diagnostic fee, 2 hours, nox sensors replacement 1.4hours, regen 1 hour. When nox sensors go out there’s usually a circuit or inefficiency codes. They’re not that difficult to diagnose. A lot of dealers these days like to charge 2 hours for “laptop hookup to read the codes” then they start with their tests. Sounds like these scum bags are taking advantage of you

 

Yeah.... 10 hours for nox sensors. .. Poor guy. Feels like a ripoff. But still not cheap. Nox sensor plus Regen.... That's like 2500$ USD?

 

No its not... But to remove closed loop fault you have to run multiple scr efficiency tests and regens to raise the LARMF COMPENSATION VALUE to above 0.92. This my take a whole day . Saying that if they keep the laptop plugged they charge $ then its bs.My truck does it in approx. 2.5 hours but i haven't changed anything cause the codes are not permanent for NOx or egr so don't know exactly what's failing . It also can the the Onebox . Don't know . Buy yourself a refurb Laptop and a clone Nexiq for 200$ from aliexpress and check these parameters. Good luck.
