Car Forum / Honda Cars / February 2005'98 Honda Accord Timing Belt
Can someone tell me what all should be done when this is changed and a approx. price? I have been quoted $449.00 - $700.00 from 5 different Honda dealers. I would greatly appreciate any feedback as I have no idea where to go or if I am getting ripped off. I have been told that this includes a timing belt, balancer belt, water pump, coolant flush, 2 ext. drive belts, and 1 other belt and also something about engine seals. Thanks for any advice 499 seems like a great price Why shop around?I paid about 599 for the same job 98 v6 accord > Can someone tell me what all should be done when this is changed and a > approx. price?

Thanks for any > > advice My local Honda dealer will charge $435 to change: Timeing Belt, all belts and hoses and the water pump for 1994 Civic. To change only the timeing belt is about $220. Ernie Sounds great. Looks like I will go with the $449.00. Thanks you guys for the info. > Can someone tell me what all should be done when this is changed and a > approx. price?

Thanks for any > advice if theyre all dealers, and all doing the same exact things, id go with the $449. thats pretty reasonable. This is my first post on this site so I hope it goes well? You have already received some excellent advice but I would caution you that the cheapest price is not always the best deal. For example, some dealers will inspect items while others will replace them. I would get my quote in writing and ask for all my old parts back. This will force a not so good, tech to make sure he replaces the parts. I have worked at a dealership and have seen tech's skip on some of the items and no one be the wiser. Also, the old belts can be carried in the trunk for an emergency. Good luck! |
