Question 2000 Jetta 2.0 ..... T/Belt?

Hello everyone,

My son has a 2000 Jetta with the 2.0 non-Turbo engine. VW recommends the T/Belt be changed at 90k, but the dealer is quoting over $500 to do it.

What would be a realistic expectation to pay at a quality independent shop?

Also, can anyone tell me for a certainty if this is an "Interference" engine or not?

Finally, has anyone attempted a DIY T/Belt replacement on this motor? Tell me your stories ...

Thanks!
