Mayberry 0 #59 April 6, 2005 Quotesince i have never met a trustworthy mechanic. Sounds like you haven't met the right ones!! I just saw this thread, Slurp56 gave you some good info. I don't think the guy was trying to hose you, stuff like that is just normal wear & tear. It was definitely time for a timing belt!!! Big bucks if it breaks as was pointed out, that's an important part of the preventive maintenance. Think of it in terms of repacking your reserve. Don Here's to friends!

Treejumps 0 #60 April 6, 2005 Hey whats up Liz, A timing belt replacement is anywhere from $250 - $500.00 depending on the car. Catastrophic converters are very expensive and can sometimes run $600 $700 for one, again, depending on the car. Given that you need two and a timing belt the $1,300.00 probaly is not that bad. Get a second estimate, and a third. Good luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
