Dealer wants $2700...
How much do private shops typically charge, and anyone recommended near San Antonio or Houston TX?

May be legit, but I'd be asking a lot of questions ahead of time.

Dont hate lol just trying to make little extra.

I made a post finding the correct timing belt for my 14 Jetta so I can knock 2 birds with one stone and change his aswell at my house.

As long as you realize the '15 requires a different TB kit and different tools.

I will think about it. It doesn't look terribly complicated, if I have the time over a weekend to do it.

Pricing varies on the area. At my shop I charge $1100 for the 2015 timing belts, all parts and labor, including the alternator clutch pulley and serpentine belt as well.
