27689, 60k service?
Posted by 9D9 MITSU RS, Jul-16-02 05:02 PM
not yet, but in about 9k more miles, i will need it. What can I expect? Prices, downtime, etc. I wanna get the afx udp installed while they do it. Also, what parts do they replace? I know timing belt, but what else?

water pump, wires and plugs if you havent already,fuel filter,and if you plan to go turbo get the better head gasket

well i'll tell you this since your car is still under warrenty check for an oil leak onto your tranny case and if you have one tell them to replace the HG before your warrenty goes.

Yeah Im 30k over the 60k service, but the manual says you can wait till 120(although it gave some shit reason like if you dont live in Cali than you can wait. I believe the T-belt is more than just an emmissions thing more like holy shit my engines in the crapper). But yeah Id like to know the price too, I havent done enough engine stuff to do it on my own, but I am gonna save up for a UDP and some cam gears before its done. Should I be careful of the revs right now? I keep forgetting to check the belt condition, what should I look for? TIA

I paid just over $400 for parts: top end gasket kit, timing belt tensioner, all new belts, and a water pump. I ordered my parts from www.conicelli.com.

the service isn't by any chance free is it? I'm not trying to be an ass. I just don't know. Is it free or something? B/c nobody is saying how much labor for 60k service is, so I'm thinking maybe it's a complimentary service for buying the car? $400, and then labor? I don't understand it yet. I got $400 for parts. How much in all is it?

Damn, well I have my plan now! Im just gonna slowly save money for the day the T-belt fails, then Ill get a top and bottom end rebuild kit and I wont have to make an excuse to do it. Not worth 1000 IMO, I think 400 is the max I would pay for labor and parts. Maybe I should start learning how to do it myself!!!!
