Default Cost for timing belts, oil, etc. ??

So I think it's time for some major tune up for a 2001 68,000 miles RX300. What do you think, ball park price, for OEM timing belts, idler pulley, tensioner pulley, hydraulic tenser, water pump, gaskets, 2 cam seals, crank sealer, alternator belt, power steering belt, thermostat, gasket, oem oil filter, 5 quarts oil, flush entire coolant system, and refill 2 gallon pink toyota coolant? This is what the service advisor recommended for my weekend car that's always been garaged... $1000 too much for parts and labor or do you think I should expect to pay more for all the above listed? Thanks guys!

The Lexus service advisor quoted $1000 for all that work? Or was that just for parts? I would have thought the dealer price for all that work (parts and labor) would be a lot more.

Do you have leaks at the cam seals and rear crankshaft seal?

If that quote is $1000 parts and labor, please let us know where that is as there are probably many others who would like to get the same deal.

My bad. It was a service advisor at O'Reilly Auto parts said with aftermarket parts and OEM toyota pink fluids. It was just a number he threw out without labor.

I would say he is way off. I know Toyota would charge around $650 labor for timing belt, water pump, and idler bearings alone. That would also include the coolant. However I could be wrong, I would only use Aisin Timing belt kit for aftermarket. They have a kit with all stuff you wanted to replace.
