Valve Lifter Oil Control Solenoid
Hi all! My 2016 2LT RS's check engine light came on yesterday, I dropped it off at the shop this morning so they could figure out what was going on.
Apparently the code was P3400 and it needs 2 new "valve lifter oil control solenoids" according to the service guy at the dealership. He quoted me $1100 (parts+labor) for these two parts which apparently also take 6 hours to install. I'm just curious if this price seems reasonable or if anyone has any more details on these particular parts? All of the "oil control solenoids" I find online are only like $35-$100, but I'm not a big engine guy so I really have no idea what I'm looking at or for. Any advice would be appreciated!

Seems a little high to me but it is likely a few hours of labor. A lot of parts have to come off the top of the engine to get to the solenoids.

Not sure if you're taking it to the dealership or not, but they are the last place I'd go if I was out of warranty.
