    So I got the car at 94K miles, and not sure if the last guy did the timing belt or not, so I figured better do it soon.......I don't think this is something I can handle myself, so has anyone had a shop like midas or a regular mechanic (not a dealership) do it? And how much did it run you? Thanks

Greg

ITs not cheap. Its also a huge pain in the ass, as the entire intake system pretty much needs to be pulled apart.

I paid $250.00 for labour to change the TB, FB, Oil, spark plugs and water pump. Was told if you do the TB you might as well do the waterpump at the same time.
