Message	We call and asked specifically for the price on Timing Belt, Tensioner, Water Pump, seals and axel. : :You don't expect a shop to spend an hour of their time, figuring out what's wrong with your car, so you can get it out of there and do the work yourself, without paying them for their time, do you? :$95 is reasonable. :Oh, it wasn't 1600 for a timing belt...that was the belt, water pump, AXLES, etc. :
