I had our belt and tensioners replaced £250

But that’s A fiat with the Iveco engine. The water pump is a big job to change.

Our local Fiat dealer charges about £850, Fiat don't recommend changing the water pump it gets expensive if you want that changed.

I had my 2003 Ducato 2.8JTD done last year .. full service, MOT and cam belt £760

Note.. on the 2.8JTD engine, ( so I was informed by the garage) the water pump is not driven by the cam-belt and is not routinely changed with the belt, unless leaking ..

Due to access restrictions, , A Class can be more expensive ..

Timing/Cam Belt Replacement - Cost and Location

I'd like to try and build a dataset of mechanics who you guys trust to change a cambelt. If you've had this done recently, it would be great to know the price and location, for example Smiths Garage, Lincoln. £700 (included new water pump) Thanks (y)

Mine was done yesterday in our Fiat A Class
Replaced cambelt, replaced A/C belt, MOT and replaced washer valve. Total cost including VAT was £800.95.

replace the cam belt and water pump on a A Class

Considerably more than on a C class die to access restrictions.
Many garages won't touch A class cam belts.

We had ours changed in Nov last year at our local motorhome dealer for £760.90, belt, tensioner and water pump all were Genuine fiat parts
