Motor Mounts and both axles need to be replace, is that normal 225K miles.
What is your question?
I bought new tires in July 2014, have always did the requirement maintenance and tire rotations on the car, this was the 3rd time new tires have been put on the car. I have to take the car back in Aug 2014 because the car was vibrating just a little, they adjusted the balance. Today Sept 2014, I took the car back to Firestone, the Guy tells me that the motor mounts are gone and I need new axles. Shouldn't they have known this in July or even August. How many amounts are on the Avalon, I saw the top one and the rubber looks like it's discounted. Any advise would be greatly appreciate and how much should a job like this cost, Firestone says $1897.87
RepairPal Certified shops can diagnose and repair your 2007 Toyota Avalon. They provide transparent pricing with a minimum 12-month or 12,000-mile warranty on repairs and services.
Getting 225k out of these is pretty darn good. The price that Firestone quoted pretty much sucks. I would shop around for a better price. (I am assuming you mean the front CV half-shafts). Passenger shaft: about $85 Driver side : about $130 for the parts. Motor mounts : About $300......then add labor. 1897-515= $1382 labor?? I must be getting old!
