Jetta TDI off service mechanical

[RUSHtheBUS]

2009 Jetta TDI
122k miles
DSG

CEL, Flashing glow plug light, display flashes "engine code, service now," engine went to limp mode, violent shaking.

Break down just happened to occur in front of Donaldson's VW on Long Island, drove it in.

Got a call from service, tells me O2 sensor bad, exhaust pressure sensor bad, #1 injector bad. Cost to repair, $1,300-$1,500. Parts take 2-3 days to get in.

Thoughts?

At that price, it is worthwhile to get a second diagnosis and estimate.

Look for a second opinion from an independent VW mechanic.
