I live in Georgia.. Can anyone give me an general ideal about how much it is going to cost to replace timing belt (only) for 2000 Audi 2.8 Quattro. I just had a major tune up done with spark plugs, wires etc...I understand can be costly.

Conservative guess - $1,000.00 - don't skimp on this service - waterpump, tensioner and the accessory belt as well! Find a good indie mechanic that knows the product and it should be done in a day! Several suppliers sell kits with everything all included - Blau, ECS and posibly your local dealer too.

i agree, this is not one of those things you count your pennies on... do the water pump for sure...

timing belt actually costs close to $1100.

audi_eh!

i had our done last spring for $1200 with all the extras (pump, tensor, etc), having said that the labour rate was only $80/hr now it's $95/hr. I did not have it done at the dealer.

Hi,
I'm an Audi Service Consultant, here's what it'll cost:
The Water Pump is done at the same time is because it is the same amount of labour. (Kill 2 birds with 1 stone.) The water pump is the least of the costs anyway. (Waterpump & Thermostat + Gaskets)

This is based on an actual quote for a 1999 A6, however, this is Canadian Dollar pricing rounded up to the nearest $5.00

BELT $85.00
ROLLER $105.00
TENSIONER $115.00
COOLANT $25.00
DAMPER $215.00
+
WATERPUMP $100.00
THERMOSTAT $40.00
and EXTRAS like SEALS & GASKETS, etc. TOTALING ABOUT $10 to $15

PLUS about

6 to 7 hours labour.

Hope this helps...

Thank you all for your help...Timing belt is now replace, however I have another question. I need my accelerator pedal position senor replaced..Any ideal what it's going to cost to replace???

I thought he asked how much it will cost to replace timing belt. He said he already had the tune up done.

I changed my timing belt in my Land Rover and in the A4 and it took me around 20 minutes.

You must live in a good area... labour rates are based on demographic.
We charge $119/hr!
