Davids right. The difficulty scale is 8/10 as discussed in other forums, athought it is doable for a pro. AL FUTTAIM quoted 4000aed after discount
so, I got my timing belt replaced yesterday at AL REYAMI Workshop (search for "Al Reyami Car Workshop" in google maps) in QUOZ for 600bucks and got the parts delivered from USA through the website rockauto and chose GATES TIMING BELT KIT, which is the OEM supplier. Came upto 600AED including shipping. So, the entire cost came upto 1200AED, instead of paying 4000 at the dealership.
I know the tread is old but maybe its helpful to others
