The dealer quoted $4300 for this ABS module fix!! Can we do it for cheaper? The workarounds we used basically involve swapping a portion of the module…

$4300 seems high. on prius’s(priui?) it’s a common failure as well and being a hybrid it’s pricey. but parts and labor it’s in the $2500 range
My 2010 has this
Glad I grew up in the 1970's snowbelt with rear wheel drive with No abs- actually 4 wheel drum brakes. Lol, we survived….
Had it twice. T5 and Caddy. Caddy still has an ESP issue. Got the abs module programmed to the abs pump. Was much cheaper
It all really depends
German mechanic here, we have a few companies that are taking your old module apart. They're solding a few new parts onto the board, and that's all you need to make it work smoothly again.
It's 450€ incl shipping and takes 5 weeks. Labor depending on the shop.
VW= Virtually worthless
550 for the part, another 500 labor?
Unless there are some “while you’re in there items”
