Hi there,
I got my car serviced yesterday, and the mech said I should have had the timing belt changed at 90,000ks (55,800 miles). My car is now at 94,000kms so he says to get it done ASAP and quoted AUD$450. I called around for a better price and got a quote of $380, and booked it in.
Once the guy was here he told me i needed the whole kit which would be an extra $350... I said no because the 1st mech had said it just needed the belt.
So Ive just got my timing belt changed at 94,000kms (nearly 60,000miles) but not the kit.
Is my car going to die? How long till I should get the kit?
Help appreciated, thanks!
Val.
