Yes, but timing belt in there, so you can take $1k off the top. That isnt bad really.

I priced the belt from the UK for the 103tsi and it was 40 quid/ $70. That's a lot of labour cost in there..... But if it's still in warranty sounds about right.

Yeah most of the job is labour. Getting the water pump done then as well was a good score as they usually need doing by then anyway.

Was tossing up to get water pump changed at the same time but they wanted to charge extra and recommended that it wouldn't need doing, Bonus all round for everyone when the leak was found.

I'm planning on getting mine done for sanity. Its not like they lose if it happens later on.

In order to replace water pump, the timing belt needs to be removed, so there shouldn't be labour charge to do the timing belt, only the parts. What they did in the service, for $1145 less timing belt kit?
