I'd estimate $1000-1500 at Midas, and here's why. A few years ago on a road trip, my vacuum pump went out. Stopped at Midas and had to pay $200 (was $50 online) for part and $600 for labor and this part was literally on top of the engine with 4 bolts. For something as intricate at the thermostat housing, I'd estimate double that price. And I'd easily say $1500+ at dealership. Me? $300-$400. It took a couple of hours to complete.
I knew it was thermostat housing because I had a check engine light and code for the thermostat. If you're having AC issues, check out my other video about replacing the blower motor. A thermostat issue isn't connected to an AC issue.
Very helpful. How much would this be to get replaces at midas/ retail place , you/ home tech and the dearler?
