model but if you search the NG900/9-3 and 9-5 board you will find more info.
A teardown of head, pan and engine cover to replace chains and sprockets ends up at about $2000-2500 depending on how much damage it is to oil pump and engine cover so that they needs to be replaced.
Keep in mind that I repair the car in a way where I feel comfortable to leave 12 month 12K miles in warranty on the repair.
A DIY can always take whatever short cuts/savings he wants to, it's only his own time and money that suffers if he has to do it again.
