I have a 2002 A4 1.8. What should I expect a timing belt replace to cost me? I think I have a problem with mechanic overcharge. Audifreak

 

i paid almost $700 for a 30v. but i quoted around and got prices ranging from $600 to $1300.. get everything done..

belt
water pump
thermostat
Tensioner Roller
Tensioner
Idler Roller
and in some cases rear main oil seal.

 

Cost me $800 for everything

 

OMG ! you guys bought the parts and exchange them urself or that the total costs are mostly labor costs ?? OMFG

 

I don't know how to do the work myself, sooooo is this just parts or parts AND labor?

 

welcome to the forum and its the LABOR that kills ya

 

its parts AND labor

if you know how to do a timing belt job, you can save a lot of money, but it has to be done right
