Oil Pan Gasket and Water Pump R&R

[fieldsofdreams]

My local Toyota dealer (been reported for gouging customers in local papers and poor customer support reviews on web page) has told me that to R&R my water pump will be $673.83 and my oil pan R&R would be $441.99 on my 2002 2.4 4-banger Camry. Can anyone give me an idea whether these guys are smoking something or what?

Have no idea why you would want to pull the oil pan unless it's bashed and needs to be replaced. If the price for the water pump includes the cost of the pump, then it is high. If the price is only for labor, then it is excessive. This can be done by any competent mechanic. Find an independent shop in town and get a price.
