    If you get a haynes repair manual you should be able to do your own discs and pads there not that hard

    how much you pay for a service is up to you but make sure you see all old parts

    if replaced . Cambelt should be done at 100 .000 mile s but a lot of people changed a lot earler.

    hope this helps ;)
