Price to pay for Autologic coding...

Hello guys,

Just wanted to ask a quick question regarding Autologic coding...

I just did a LCI tail light conversion on my 08 and as expected, system is giving me a bulb-light malfuction warning signals.

Called this one place near by and they've told me it's gonna cost me $108 to clear the code, is this sound fair???

I think I've read somewhere that it's about $30-40?

Something tells me that it's overpriced but just wanted to be sure before I call other places...

Any inputs is sincerely appreciated as I am clueless here...

Thanks!

Pricing depends on the technician's labor rate, some have a fixed cost and some do charge hourly.

Its best to call around, as well as verify their machine is up to date.

What are the more common things you can code with an Autologic? The mechanic a block from my office has one.

THere's a whole "Coding" sub-forum on the E90 side.
It's pretty extensive.
