Google says a Model 3 takes about 5 gallons of G48 anti freeze. That's $100 in just fluids. High end mechanics can charge about $150/hr. Let's say:
1 hour to dismantle and diagnose
1 hour to cut/drill/tap
1 hour to fill and bleed the system
1 hour for whatever diagnostics are needed to verify that the ECU is happy and the car drives well.
Sounds like $700 to me.
