Carter VW/Saab is a bit expensive....

Actual bill was $125.25 plus sales tax and 'evironnmental fee' of $5.00; for a total of $142.52.
The belt itself was $48.25 and the labor charge was $77.00 (the shop has a one hour minimum rate and charges $77/hr).
I would have done the repair myself, except I wanted the dealer records to show that they had checked the pulleys, etc. in case of future warranty problems (and I was being lazy). I actually have a brand new Continental Rubber serpentine belt for my Saab sitting in my garage. Just being a bit lazy and ina time crunch before the holidays. Just think of it as my Christmas present to my dealer. :^) ho-ho-ho!
