Timing Belt Replacement Costs -- CO
I have a wonderful garage with trustworthy mechanics. I have been quoted $1100 to replace a cracked timing belt.
I have heard from a couple other garages about the same thing.
When I search online everyone is saying $600-850. Is CO really that much more expensive than even So. Cal. or NY?
What else do I need to know or do when I get the belt replaced?

A timing belt by itself is about $35. What exactly are they going to replace for $1100?
Normally a full service job includes the belt, tensioner, idler, and water pump. You can buy these for about $200 to $400 depending on brand
Shops cost about $100 per hour.
I would get a breakdown of what they are going to replace and how much time it's going to take.
