My 91SE is getting close to the magic 120k service interval, and I want to know how much ramen noodle soup I'll be eating to pay for the standard 120k tune up and service (belts, timing doohickeys, etc.)

Could any of this be done in stages to save wallet-shock?

I live in the Midwest (Omaha), but I don't even know if labor/service costs differ across the country

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance....

Scott

91SE = VG30E engine...timing BELT.
the going rate is about $350-$500. i recommend u check the oil seals and the water pump when you do this job. best to do it all in one shot if you can afford it. i would do the tune up yourself and have the dealer do the timing belt and tensioner..maybe water pump.
