2001 BMW X5 with 100k miles. Only repairs done is fuel pump. Now, i have the oil and coolant leaks. I have taken it into a shop and they want to perform work with estimate including tax of $3,648. Is the actual amount going to be less or higher than estimate and how much more would raise a red flag? Any opinions welcomed!
