Just got the timing belt service done, few questions..

[Mike02A4]

I just had the whole timing belt job done @ 83,000 miles. I just wanted to get it done for piece of mind. They did everything: belt, water pump, tensioner, belt damper, thermostat, and serpentine belt. My question is, I am wondering if I got a metal pump or not. Here is the part #:06a-121-012-x.

Thanks

I did some searching, and I believe its metal. Its the same part number as this one on pureMS minus the 'x' at the end... http://www.purems.com/products/product.php/II=1126

the oem part is plastic, so i don't really know why they would replace w/ a metal one unless it was a service bulletin or something of the sort.

yes when i did mine i replaced it with a metal one, but i think that was more of same company but technically aftermarket.

correct me if i'm wrong or sound stupid.

how much did it cost you for parts and labor to do all the timing belt service package? from dealership?

I still run a plastic one in my car.
