Need a Spot
I need to have my timing belt replaced - it's over due.

This is for a 2001 Gen 3.

I have a quote from Mitsu-Dealer in San Jose for $650.oo. I would like to get it down a bit if I could. I don't know who in my area to go to since I recently moved from Santa Cruz.

I'm looking for some recommendations in the Santa Clara/Sunnyvale area or in San Mateo/Redwood Shores area.

Thanks in advance


2001 Montero XLS. Needs some TLC.
My B**ch ex-wife really treated this vehicle badly. Been fixing it up since I had to take possesion after the divorce.

Jacoby's Auto in San Jose. I don't know how his prices would compete with a dealer, but he's who I take all my aging vehicles to when I'm stumped or strapped for time. I highly recommend him. Ron has always been willing to take time to talk things over with me and has always worked hard to ensure that the problem really is fixed.
