Hope this is not too late. But i did it in JB and they charge RM450 (SGD$185)for the timing belt change including the water pump, bearings and gasket. All original parts.

i did in Singapore @ Gary's Synergy Auto @ Lavender Esso, consider reasonable charge, contacted Seb Auto @ Kaki Bukit, another workshop which is familiar with KIA rides but price higher than Gary's I changed my timing belt @ around 78K

hi ACE. can check with you CnC labour charged you $250 just for changing timing belt only?? Or does it include labour for changing bearing and water pump gasket??? cos from what i know CnC like to charge different labour charge for different component changed. Mine milage now is abt 74k liao.. Tks!
