Not cheap lol. If your going to pay to have someone do it for you, a dealer is going to suck you dry. Try looking for the parts online and buy them yourself first, then find a local shop to install everything for you. I think autopartswarehouse.com has everything that you need for a decent price. That accessory belt should be on there and it's not easy to find everywhere for some reason.

the audi dealer back in fort wayne (wont name but i dont go there any more for obvious reasons) said that a new timing belt, serpentine belt, and water pump was going to cost $1100. I told them I could do it myself but I didnt want to for like $400 (i was making up numbers) they came back and said they could do the serp and the waterpump for 400 so I said ok and took the timing belt to tuffy and they did it for $80... you just have to talk to people let them know you have knowledge in the subject
