Like oats and oat bran, barley and other whole grains can help lower the risk of heart disease, mainly via the soluble fiber they deliver. Beans. Beans are especially rich in soluble fiber. They also take a while for the body to digest, meaning you feel full for longer after a meal.
Timing belt replacement cost. Replacing a timing belt for preventive reasons typically costs $500 to $900. However, replacing a broken timing belt may cost up to $2,000 or more if it caused damage to the valves, pistons or water pump. âIn some cases, you may have a very expensive repair and you have to buy a new car,â says Kathy Wallace, owner of highly rated Central Garage Company in Reynoldsburg, Ohio.
I have a 2001 VW Passat. The timing belts are supposed to be replaced every 80,000 miles, and I am at 160,000 miles, looking to replace them again. I went to a European specialty shop who has done some work on my car before, and they gave me an estimate of 850$, for all parts and labor.This seems absurdly high to me.f the labor is around $85 to $90 an hour, that's $510 to $540 in just labor alone, Then there is the cost of parts, the belt, the tensioner, most likely a new water pump as most pumps in driven off the timing belt now days, May as well do it while you are in there.
