    Its not so bad, 2.4 is a bit of a bugger as there is lots of junk to come off to get to the cam belt cover, and obviously care in refilling the cooling system to avoid airlocks.

    As a guide, I charge £100 plus the belt, 3.0's are half that.

      I had mine done a couple of months ago and it was 120 quid.

      Cue cries of 'how much? They only cost 40 quid to buy' etc etc. It would have cost a lot more if I'd tried to do it myself.....

            How much does peace of mind cost? That's cheap compared to the problems a snapped one could cause.
