My 2000 Sienna is fast approaching 90k miles and it is time for a timing belt replacement. I've called a few dealers and independent shops in my area, Northern Virginia, and have been given ballpark figures ranging from $650 to $1100. Anyone have experience with this type of replacement service and what was your cost?
Thanks for any reply.
I had mine done for $248 at the dealer in Newport News. If they're charging that much up there it might be worth a 2.5 hour road trip down here.
I'd go with the lower price bid if it were my car . ;)

Reading your note reminded me I was due for the second belt replacement in my '98 Sienna. $200 at CARMAX Laurel Toyota, a little more than the first replacement ($170 if memory serves).
Seems like rather a lot.
The Toyota dealer who sold me my '01 Sienna sends me a coupon about every other month for a V6 timing belt replacement for $250. Their regular price is about $300. Their I4 coupon price is $200; regular price $250.
Belt replacement only or does this include water pump, other belts, hoses?
That is belt only.
Our '00 RAV4 was in the $250 range (and, of course, we did some other stuff while it was in that state of partyial disassembly).
