Is $6600 worth it? He has 300002 kms on it.
Crappy thing is, he had it in last week for service and to get his brand new winter tires installed.

I would get a second opinion both on what the issue is and the cost of replacing the engine. An engine from a wrecker installed by an independent garage would probably be way less than that. My father in law had a new engine put in a Chrysler sedan for ~2500.
