Timing belt.

Why are they so expensive to replace? Is the belt itself expensive?

No, it's cuz they have to pull off the valve cover and crap, really hard to get at. Esp the B16. Not much room to work in.

If you're getting it done don't forget to get the water pump replaced too.

Not a bad price.

What engine do you have and which dealership you go to?
