rough cambelt cost for mk2 8v gti?

Recommended Posts

So I'm off to Africa on wednesday to get married :D

 

As I'm away for 3 weeks, I'm thinking it's the perfect time to throw the car at a garage (esp as i'm now working and have some £££!) and get them to do the cambelt and time everything after.

 

What costs am I looking at? I've already bought a Gates Powergrip cambelt kit for the car, c/w belt, tensioner and tensioner bolt so ihopefully i'm just looking at labour.

 

Cheers,

 

Jon.

Forgot to add, if they're a bosch specialist i'd like them to look at the tuning too (I know you've shown me a lot, tony_ack!) as they might as well seeing as they'll have to re-time the whole engine.

Hi ya Jon shouldnt be more than a couple of hours labour cambelt change is an easy job checking the timing obviously needs the correct tools but I wouldnt expect much more than £120 £140 for labour.

 

Bones.
