What is a reasonable number of labor hours to be charged for replacement of a timing belt on a 2001 v40? Thanks.

    According to this online estimator......

    http://repairpal.com/estimator/results

    ....it should cost between $367 and $543 for belt replacement only in your zip code. Add water pump, tensioner, and accessary belt and the price goes to $741-1066. I don't know how realistic that estimator is. That's a wide range in price, so shoot for the middle????

    I remember seeing a video on you tube for an S40 timing belt. Maybe that would help.
    Regardless, I'd expect it would be a 4 hour job - maybe 6 for a novice.
    No first hand experience on this particular car. But I know it'll be coming soon for our '01.
