Cost of 2015 TDI Golf Sportswagen Timing belt change

[Over50(mpg)]

Hello!

The maintenance schedule calls for replacement at 130K miles.
What should I expect to pay for timing belt replacement parts and labor combined?

Thanks

Depends on the area. I've seen everything from $800-3500 for the 2015. I charge $1050 for those ones in my shop.

Parts can be had for about $300 or so.

Labor is where the difference will be. Depends on who is doing the job.

$1700 dealer
$1300 independent shop,
$500 DIY ( including parts, special tools, coolant & new serpentine belt).

I'm gearing up to do the job, researching and sourcing parts and tools.
