Seems A Little High To Me

The whole distributer or just the distributer cap and rotor? The rest sounds like a normal tune up. The entire distributer shouldn need to be changes unless something is wrong with it.

Otherwise, about $100 in parts and an hour or two labor.
It does sound rather high.
Maybe someone else who owns a pathfinder can comment on how difficult these parts are to get to.
