Timing belt

[carzy.0191]

Evening guy's
Had my 172 about 2 months now and it's approaching timing belt changing time, anyone know how much I should be getting priced for this? I'am also thinking about changing the clutch at the same time and someone has quoted me £545 for this don't know if they r taking the mick as clutch kits are about £130 from what i can tell for a Valeo kit. Anyway the car is mint and fun to drive.:rasp:

Why do you want to change the clutch if the car drives mint?! :S

I had both cambelt and auxillary belt kits done this week. That includes replacing the tensioner and idler pulleys as well, they come as a kit. Cost just under £500 all in.

Because when they do the pulleys and belts the engine will be out so i might as well get clutch done at same time!!!! BUTCHHHHHHH

You dont take the engine out to do a belt normally on a 172.
