More than likely your c.v joint but will need inspecting to confirm which one it is, I've had the same problem before. was ok to drive on just very annoying!

If a garage said that to me I'd be taking it somewhere else

they really aren't that bad at all, unless the mechanics incompetent! in which case he's going to find it tough going..

And if I recall correctly it wasn't that much for my new c.v joint either and that was over in Ireland. should be around 70 pounds for your 05 gx..

Don't let them fob you off with 'oh its a Subaru' and then let them charge the earth!
