    So my mechanic quoted $30k for labor and parts for a full service. Im assuming this means all belts, fluids, etc. I’m in the Reno, NV area.

    I have been shop foreman in some big Ferrari dealers. Rule one, always always diagnose sounds before taking a car apart. It is typically a very expensive mistake not to.

    You can ship your car to the Bay Area and get the engine out service done for less than half of that quote.
