Default timing belt question

Hi Guys,

My wifes car is due for teh timing belt service. I was quoted $502 by the local shop.

97 es300 Includes:

Timing & all belts
Water pump
coolant replacement
labor

Is this price fair?


Thanks

Its not terrible but the dealer is probably higher. Timing belts in these engines involve a lot of work.

As long as the parts are Toyota/Lexus OEM parts, that price sounds fair to me.
