How much should it cost to replace the timing belt on my 2004 Lexus RX 330 with about 99,300 miles.

The independent shop I uses charges $248.95 (see coupon). I always have them replace the water pump, tensioner, accessory belt, etc. The total is usually right around $550-$600 for everything.

^Thats an incredible deal, even without the extras. In my experience a more common number will fall between 600-1200 depending on where you go and whether they use OEM or aftermarket parts. Surprisingly, the last belt and I changed, and hopefully my last, was done at the dealer with the water pump for $700, cheaper than independents were charging me

Thanks for the info. I'd been told it would cost from $2,000-$5,000. Seemed excessive,

All old components looks pretty good shape no bearing noise at @150K km so next change interval I will wait for 200K km @350K km if it has，Maybe Canada west coast's weather contributes a lot.
