$ for Timing Belt

We got an estimate to have the timing belt changed in our 2003 Kia Sorrrento, it was for $600-$800. My parents had theirs changed for just over $300, they have a late model Toyota Highlander. Why is there such a big $ difference?

Yedda is a great place to share it.

Differences can relate mostly to the labor involved in changing the part, I am not familiar with both models of cars, but one car can differ from another in terms of how many other elements you need to disassemble and reassemble to replace the timing belt.

 I would get another quote from a licensed KIA service and compare.

Good luck.
