Im at 68,000 miles and was wondering if anyone in the Los Angeles area knows a shop where i can get a good deal on timing belt/water pump replacement.
All I've been quoted so far is 1,100 bucks.

thanks

NO, thats too much, shop around ))
Go to Regional Forums, this forum is well known to have a lot of people from Ca. THey will help u.

DIY!!!! took me four hours and a $250 kit from www.purems.com you might check how much cheaper it would be if you bring in your own stuff... some shops wont let u but it doesnt hurt to ask

im also looking for a shop and the cheapest one i found was in rancho cucamonga
its called genesis autosport the number is 909 945 3674
u can also take ur own parts.

I would say an average labor $$$ should be about $350.
