Good Shop/Mechanic for Timing Belt Change

Hey guys, I was wondering who you'd recommend to do the 105K mile service on my 04 TL? It's the one that includes the timing belt, water pump, serpentine belt, etc. So far the dealer is quoting me about $1000 and PIP Imports quoted me $950. Anybody you'd recommend that could beat those prices for that work? Thanks.

So while I've done quite a few repairs on my car, after reading through the DIY this seems a bit over my head. I'd prefer to just pay for the repair unless I could sucker somebody that really knows what they're doing to come help me out.

I'm no wiz, but didn't let mine kick my butt to bad, I'd offer helping hand but my work schedule isn't consistent & longer weeks cause dumb holidays

I got a 2008 TL Type S 6MT NBP. Bought it but haven't got it yet. I have to go up to jersey and pick it up. Should grab it in the next couple weeks. Look forward to meeting some of you guys and helping out the community.

Sorry I missed ya'll. I returned on the 30th to get back to my family for New Years. Hope to meet up some other time. I have been to La promenade on Laskin Rd. with my friend on a Saturday morning. It was cool, I sat in a NSX. Hope to return one day, or one day I may just move back to VB. The Acura scene is more active in Tidewater than where I live now.

Yeah..I hear ya'll. I've been holding it down for most of the ones that ride out. We have been to almost all C&Cs this year and most major shows.

Every weekend almost, we get a minimum of 4-5 TLs doing something.

**Planet Fitness in Hampton - Friday-Saturday Nights
**Freedom Wash in VB Friday - Saturday Nights & random nights
**This Saturday is NN C&C... City Center Oyster Point... 8am

Websites are harder to organize people... FB groups, FB msgs, & instagram is where I'm make more contacts. It is what it is, no big deal for me. I love this site and would like it to be more active.

If anyone needs work done... lmk as well. I have people in Norfolk/ VB and Hampton/Newport News.
