Hi,
My 2011 body is approaching the 105K timing belt recommended service. I called my local honda dealer and got this quote: $1160 plus tax to replace the timing belt, water pump, and driving belt. I told them my driving belt was just fine, but they said it was a service pack you must have it replaced. Does this quote sound a little too high? My other car's timing belt/water pump only cost me $450. I'm somewhat handy and have replaced my brakes, rotors etc. I'm wondering if it is too difficult to replace them myself. I know the timing belt has to be perfectly aligned and tensioned, or I might risk damaging my engine.
