Hi guys, I've just gotten my FTO. Having some problems with the alternator and timing belt. Could anyone recommend me a place which does a decent job for cheap? Thanks.

The words "change timing belt" and "fto" do never = cheap sorry

There is no space, and it's a pain in the ass of a job. Many hours to be spent. IMO don't look for cheap garages to do it, get it done once, and done right. At the same time change the waterpump too and any seals that may need it. No point having to do it all over again if the waterpump dies.
