The price of a camshaft will depend on the car youâre driving and the auto repair shop you take it to. To replace a camshaft in most vehicles with an overhead cam, the cost will be about $700 to $1,300. Parts, depending on the make and model of the vehicle, can be in the $150 to $300 range. Foreign camshafts tend to be 2 to 3 times more than an American branded camshaft.
SO, All I can do is upgrade to the new Hyd.cam chain tensioner @ $1,500 and hope to get 50,000 miles on it before it explodes. The Macon Ga sales mgr. told me the extended warranty would not cover Cam chain tensioner failure because it was a wear item but no where in the factory maintenance manual does it tell you to inspect it at intervals.
