Anywhere from 300-1200 depending on how experienced and honest the shop is that's doing the repair, as well as the quality of the parts and what parts are changed when doing the job. You should have the shop check and or replace the drive belts, waterpump, tensioner, idler and any seals if their leaking while they change the timing belt. Good luck and hope this helps.

If the belt has broken, you can count on a fairly large repair bill. Usually, valves get bent. If your belt is still intact, do the right thing and let the delaership do it. They will use genuine factory parts with a REAL warranty, and use the correct water pump and coolant, if required. Call a few dealers to see if they have competitive prices. If you have an outside repair shop do the work, make SURE that they are using genuine Acura parts and NOT some aftermarket junk. You will probably need new tensioners and rollers. GOOD LUCK!!
