Message	I would encourage you to attempt those yourself, such as: fuel filter, spark plugs, fluid changes, brakes etc. Timing belts/water pump is quite difficult on this car simply due to the dual overhead camshaft setup on this V-6 with VERY limited space under the bonnet. The key is to *time* the events so as to perform a repair as well as related repair/replacement *simultaneously*. For example, if a repair facility changes your timing belt, have them do the regular drive belts and so on. This greatly reduces your labor charges and you can focus on the basic repairs. Please review the Faq/Tech section thoroughly, to become familiarised with these procedures. Good Luck, quiki
