How much should the replacement of the timing belt and water pump on a Honda Civic cost?

I am not sure but my friend just paid nearly 2,000 to have the same thing done to his Honda Odessy.

$400

Depends on the year of the vehicle and the motor size. Pricing for a 1.5 Litre SOHC engine is about $425 dollars.

I'd guess around 1000 bucks, depending on the year, and where you have it done.

about $700 for both at an independent mechanic. A dealer will charge you about double that.

No way... 1400 bucks for a timing belt and a water pump???... no way... 650 at a honda dealer... the belt is only 25 bucks... the water pump is about 150... no way they will charge you 800 for labor... it will be about 600-650

If you invest in the equipment and do it yourself, the parts from your local auto parts store will only cost you about $45 for the timing belt and $30 for the tensioner belt. Don't be tricked into replacing the water pump if there's no leak along the gear; just replace the water pump rubber seal for just $2. The rubber seal will eventually leak but the water pump will continue to function well.A water pump is nothing more than a gear that spins the fins on the other side to help move the water like a water wheel. A new one can cost you $45 so replacing one that's not leaking at the gears will be a waste of funds.http://hondacivicrepairs.com/timing_...ic&id=26Buying the parts first and looking for a shop to do the labor could also save you money. Otherwise, you can expect the cost to soar anywhere above $400.Good luck!
