timing belt is about due on my xantia. first one its had since i've owned the car, just looking for rough figures so i know what to expect when the bill comes.



Also, clutch has never been great on it. Whats the going rate for replacement.

werent you given an up front price?

maybe i worded that completly wrong. its not in the garage at the moment. but i will be booking it in shortly, just need to know a rough price guide. Why i wrote it the way i did i dont know i was probably still asleep.

s'ok most small garages near me do it for about 100 to 150 quid main dealer would be about double that its not a bad job to do one on your car, same as on my old 406 td and i did that in about an hour and a half allow for the fact that when its stripped the water pump may be showing early signs of leakage either way i cant see the job being beyond the capabilites of most of the smaller garages

I had the belt done last year for about =A3120, the clutch was =A3250 inc parts and labour at my local specialist about 2 months ago.

A few years ago Citroen wanted =A3450 for the clutch on a BX and recently quoted me =A3350 for the cambelt.

Just to clarify, the work I had done recently was on a 1.9TD LX Xantia and the Citroen cambelt quote was for the Xantia also.
