    Guys, I have posted earlier regarding to Ferrari Dealer charges me $740 to replace the gasket of my Thermo Stat.

    Today dealer called saying that the Thermo Stat leak has been fixed, but there's still coolant leak, dealer suspected the leak is coming from TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER HEAT EXCHANGER HOSE, and they want to charge me $1760 (12.5 Hours of Labor @ $140 per hour) to take a look at it.

    Dealer says if its just a loose hose(s), then I don't have to pay for the Hose(s) (dealer says $300 each, so $600 for 2 hoses if necessary).

    My questions are:

    1. Does really takes 12 hours to check on the TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER HEAT EXCHANGER HOSE?

    2. Dealer has already charged me $740.00 for Thermo Stat Gasket Replacement, why they didn't check the TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER HEAT EXCHANGER HOSE while they replace the Thermo Stat Gasket whenthe intake manifold were removed.

    3. Dealer has changed my clutch recently, could the leak be their fault (possible they twisted my steel oil cooler line, because they are connecting to the heat exchanger hose)?
