If you were quoted $800 just to do the belt, that sounds really high. I was quoted just under $900 for a complete 120k service (including belt, tensioner, water pump and a bunch of other junk).


I had the timing belt on my Rodeo done for around $300. The actual belt's going to set you back something like $20. The rest is labor.

$800 will buy you a used 3.2 to drop in there yourself.

As for the need: yeah, you need a new timing belt if you've never had it done and you're pushing 100k. But I'd definitely get a second opinion.

For what it's worth (FWIW), you really should replace that water pump while you're in there, as it's got to come off anyhow. But keep looking...
