That's a bit steep, but there are some expensive parts there....
My take on "fair"price:
Parts:
plugs $50.00 total
pads $125.00/set
rotors: $250.00/pr
brake fluid: $20
sensors $25.00
tires: $1250.00/4 (you got 4?)
<-- big question, what size tires - this could vary +100%/-30%
filters: $50.00
Oil: $80.00 8@$10/qt
pressure sensors - dunno $200.00?/all
total: $2050.00 (tires > 50%)
Labor:
plugs 1.5 hours $185.00
pads/rotors/bleed: 1.5 hours $185.00
oil change & checks 1 hour $125.00
filters: 0.5 hour $65.00
mount,balance tires 2 hours $250.00 (generous!)
sensors: extra 0.5 hours while doing tires $65.00
Misc: 1 hour $125.00
total: $1,000.00 with slop
$3,050.00 @ $125/hour and retail prices (twice what I would pay mostly)
