Fun story - I brought the alternator in to be replaced. I told 'em I had and 02 sensor and engine mounts too if he could gimme a price on em and he just told me $275 for the job. I told him I would give him $300 for it as, honestly, I was ready to pay $300 per mount.

Now, even if he tells me the job was rough and he has to charge $400 (he is fair I've taken my envoy to him before), $400 is still a slammin price.

He's just a small shop thats been in my neighborhood >20 years.


The engine mounts need to be genuine GM, others will not last...read this, and been told by several people, including the shop I trust with my TB.
