Are there any ABrs (mechanics) familiar with car model Kia Rio 1.4 10plate
Belt or chain replacements?......Would this be an engine removal job & what you think is a fair charge for parts/labour ?

Many thanks in advance for your responses....

I have changed the timing chain on a couple of cars and there was no need to take out the engine. But that was in older cars.
It's a timing belt, should be changed at 60,000 miles or 72 months ( whichever comes first ).
Should take between 2 to 4 hours to change it.
( not an engine removal job ).

Thanks guys.....very helpful!
As Tony /Eddie, don't rush the job, you get one chance with the timing, get that wrong you may be talking about the removal of the head, If I was on with this job It would be NEW belts al around.
