How much can it cost to change the timing belt of a mitsubishi 97 galant?

My timing belt are sceaming when i'm running my car. They told me it needs to be changed. I want to know how much it can cost in total to change them. The car is a mitsubishi galant 97.How much can it cost to change the timing belt of a mitsubishi 97 galant?Are you sure they said timing belt? Timing belts don't generally scream, they are internal and if not working, your vehicle won't run. Perhaps they said serpentine belt, more likely, which can get glazed and cracked and slip and scream, louder as you accelerate.



In either case, cost will be the cost of parts, plus the labor rate times the number of hours to fix the problem. If it's the timing belt it will be more since covers will have to be removed, etc. Serpentine belt is fairly simple.How much can it cost to change the timing belt of a mitsubishi 97 galant?i would say it was your alternator/fan belt which is screaming, not the timing belt. for a start, your timing belt has teeth on it, which prevents it slippin, if it did slip, you would know cos your car would run differently. ask at another garage, for a new alternator belt changing, its no more than 50 quid. for a timing belt, no more than 200 quid. defo try the alternator belt first tho, and save moneyHow much can it cost to change the timing belt of a mitsubishi 97 galant?ya timeing would cast round 500-600bucks cuz you have to pull the motor but the timing shouldnt slip if it would your car would back fire alot and maby stall id spray belt dressing on the alinaor belt to be sure thats itHow much can it cost to change the timing belt of a mitsubishi 97 galant?prob about 200 bucks, if it breaks it will cost you 2000 in repairs or more its worth the money to pay someone
