Ok, so me and my dad both were thinking, If theres nothing wrong with my water pump, why pay 0ver $700 to have it replaced. so i guess it was closer to $1000 for the timing belt. Anyway do i need to have my water pump done too? I havent had any problems with it. Just seems sad to put $1,800 into a car thats barely worth that. lol |
You should do a new pump, chances are if your gears are worn the bearing is tired too. both have the some pressure on them. You have the entire labor bill if it fails.
I see nothing on here about addressing the tensioner or your crank and oil pump pulleys, which are almost certain to be worn as well
