The check engine light was on in my Camry. Took it to a transmission place and the recommendation was to have the solenoid pack replaced - which may or may not resolve the issue. They also gave me an estimate of $600 to get the solenoid pack replaced.

Are the estimates around market rate? I do not want to go through the hassle of getting it replaced only to find out that the whole transmission needs a rebuild...

Many thanks in advance

    My labor guide says 2.7 hours to replace the solenoid, plus diagnostic time, 4 quarts of transmission fluid, and test drive the price seems right for the work being done.
