Cambelt Replacement Cost

[darkchief1]

Hey all,

 

Am still on the hunt for a manual BH5 and I'm looking at one, but it needs the big service (cambelt, w/pump and tensioners). I was wondering about how much would I be looking at to have this done? Any change from 1k or am I thinking a bit too low? At the moment I'm trying to figure if I can fit the car and the job into my budget and into an offer that they would accept, and figured while I waited to hear back from a shop I would see what everyone else has paid for theirs. Work would be done in Tauranga, so any recommendations for shops there would be good also!

Rapt are a good cheaper option or PF Auto if you want it done by the top level guys which is probably overkill. 

Could discuss with them a labour only deal and source everything genuine yourself from partsouq for a fraction of the cost of getting it locally. Still a big job though so 1k all up is probably not far off, this way you get the better genuine stuff than the cheaper alternative parts though

yeah around $1k +/- $250 for odds
