VW (water and air) and Audi specifically, but they will do some work on most other vehicles too
It's really best to find a place that has experience working on your specific car and engine. That way they aren't treating your car like a lab rat.

For some reason, dealership t-belt jobs on the 3.0 can cost way more (read double) than 2.8 or 2.7T,
and sometimes 4.2 jobs. This is just based on a timing belt job price flyer I remember seeing once.
