I asked my dealer for a quote on belts and hoses and got a quote of $90
for the belt, and 9 hoses at $325 total parts and over $200 labor.  I
didn't even know I had 9 hoses!!  I'm in AZ where I don't want to skimp
on replacement of rubber parts, but I am probably way late on having
this maintenance done.  The cost, however, seems extreme.  Comments?

Are you sure its $90 for the belt? I remember when I replaced my belt
