So just to update, my car is in for a 40k service. I did buy a new water pump / gasket / V-belt in preparation for the change, but decided to let the techs tell me if I really need it right now. Bottom line is I don't. Zero leaks, bearing spins freely, and the belt is still very good. So I'm going to save the $475 quoted labor and hold onto my parts for the time being.
And hey...imagine that...a "stealership" that turns away a chance to get another $500 out of a customer!
