Correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that each job done on a car has I guess what you could say preset hours per job that varies by car and that certain jobs have certain rates. Even if say the work is supposed to be 4 hours, but done in 1 hour still gets paid the full 4 hours. My mechanic has this rate book that they use to base every job they do. Of course you can always increase the price on labor or decrease as you see fit.

I have to be honest, I was nervous, but all turned out well .

Old timing belt looked like new, hardly any wear. I did have one of the bearings making noise at start up sometimes which made me nervous.

$375t for parts,
$350 for labor , plus $40 tip.

If anyone needs a place to get their timing belts done let me know. This place in Queens NY has dine me well . PM me if needed.


Regards.

Very good price for timing belt job. Hope the water pump replacement is included.
Nothing is wrong with tipping.
