How much does it cost to replace the timing chain on a Golf VI?
Years 2008-2012

Answer

If we intend to replace the timing chain on our Volkswagen Golf VI ourselves, we will need around 100.00 to purchase a kit on major e-commerce platforms. We will also need a lot of time and a fair amount of skill because it is not an easy job. If, on the other hand, you decide to rely on a mechanic, the figure will rise to around 450.00/500.00 euros. And if you wanted to rely on the official Volkswagen network, the price goes up even more, considering that it's a job that requires a lot of manpower. It will go around 700.00 euros.
