Today I'm having an independent in the Orlando area change the timing belt on my wife's 2000. Check with me in a couple of days. Hi Dark Horse.I just had Lakeland Toyota change it for me yesterday.I also had them do the waterpump and both tensioners.Along with a fresh thermostat and replacing the cam seals too which were starting to leak.They charged a little over $1300 which I thought was high but they were convenient to me and gave me a loaner car for the day.I was nervous about driving it with the original belt on it. Hopefully I can get another 100000 miles out of it and can complain about changing it ;) again CJ, I had a great experience with the independent I took my wife's car to. Real pros, did everything by the book and reasonable (I should know, I was in the business for 15 years). I will go back to them again, and recommend them without reservation (assuming they they are consistent). Let me know if you need more information. I am grateful to have found them. P.S. they offered me a loaner. D. H. /d.h. what is the name of that shop?thx The name of the shop is Z Tech.

Hi Everyone, My wife's 2000 LS400 has 91,600 and I want to replace the T belt. However, I am finished with the local dealer ($50 oil changes). Can someone refer me to an independent service facility that is quality minded with a successful track record in Metro Orlando? What charges should I expect for the belt replacement (the water pump was replaced at 50K)? There is a company in Longwood called Z Tech who have been around quite along time. Anyone had any experience with them? Any input would be greatly appreciated.
