How many hours labor should I expect to pay at the dealership for replacing a shifter shaft seal?

 

I wouldn't pay more than 2 hrs.

 

Thanks dawg. I appreciate your response.

 

One shifter shaft seal, a starter o-ring and an inner primary oil seal, a couple of primary gaskets and reassembly, and voila', no more primary chattering. I am happy, happy, happy.

 

How many hours?

 

Three and a half, including oil and filter change, inspection sticker plate install and general once-over in preparation for road trip. State inspection, too, but no labor charge for that.
