All in mine was £270 if i remember correctly...I made sure the water pump was of the metal variety also..

I'm getting mine done on Monday by a reputable guy. £300 for cambelt, water pump and coolant change.

£300 from Independent Automotive, north Coventry; Longford Road, Holbrooks. included water pump (;p)

If you use them tell then where and who you heard of them as they do a loyalty system :rofl:

Several dealers have a £199 offer on right now.

ye i thought my local vw did but they quoted nearer 400 with the water pump, my local skoda dealer want 441 inc vat for the cambelt change, water pump is extra i think!

i got this offer too i thought it might be a trick where they put FROM £199 if it is £199 im going to book mine in

I bought for my Fabia 1.4 16V a cambelt kit £67.77, waterpump (metal) £18.75, G12 coolant £3.50) from TPS, who only supply genuine VAG parts, and good local garage charged 1 hour labour £42. Cannot recommend TPS enough for service & price, it is normally for trade but if there is one near you just pop in. Also got genuine oli filter £2.37, X4 plugs £10.76 and air filter £9.50. Some garages are happy for you to arrange the parts and as shown above you can get genuine parts same, if not cheaper, than after market.

Just had mine done,

Belt kit, Water pump, Coolant, Aux belt & Labour. £300+ VAT
