So 200000kms just ticked over. Time for belts and water pump to be replaced.
Fixed price Ford servicing for belts $810. No price for water pump. So I go direct to Service centre for quote. 1. quote $1600+ for belts me: that can't be right Ford Fixed is $810 dealer: yes you are right $810 me: Ok. how much for the water pump dealer: $1700+ me: that can't be right, you basically have to loosen the water pump to take off the belts, I was expecting 30min labour+ part cost dealer: Ok. $600 2. Ultratune me: belts and pump quote please UT: $1175 me: sweet. book it. wait. does that include the pump? UT: pump will be extra $390-440 me: what? if ford is $810 for belts, how can you be $1175? UT: we include seals, tensioners and pulley's, ford don't. me: Don't have $1600. Cancel please. How hard is it?
