Only issue with the 250 repair is you have to go to the shop and tell them that's what you want. My car was only putting out one code to my DTC reader, so it was only after they had it that the other code came up. And I'm sure that's how it is for others too. The shop I took it to charged 5 hours labor. Not much difference there, but that depends on the shop. I'm not doing backflips over what I was charged, but it was fixed and I can drive the car for a few more years, so I'm happy.
