Default Timing Belt Service

I just got a quote for a new timing belt for $440 inclu. labor, is that about the going rate? is there anything else to check for while doing the timing belt

Default Expect to spend more

In addition to the belt, you need to be replacing the water pump, thermostat, idler and tensioner rollers - depending on engine. Its also a good time to replace the serpentine/v-belts as well. Refer to the B5 FAQ for more info.
