SEAT Ateca - Timing belt - Michael Maddison

I was wondering if I could ask a few Learned minds as to how much a timing belt change on a 17 plate Seat Ateca ecomotive should cost as I reckon the £600 I've been quoted by the dealer seems a bit silly. Any ideas?

Take a look at the post below yours. All been discussed here. Seat Leon st .

But the one about the Leon is a TSi. Pretty sure the Ecomotive that tis poster has will be a diesel. Different engines could mean different prices.

Could be wrong , thought the eco motive models are tsi petrol engines .

Just checked, the I.6 TDi is badged as the eco motive but the 1.0 TSi is also badged as the eco motive.

Since the other thread is about a 4 cylinder petrol its not really relevant to either eco motive.

Is there a VAG specialist near to you? As your car is rising six years I would be investigating that route.

There's probably one or two I should think, Google to the rescue
