My water pump crapped out...

My water pump crapped out...

Postby black99 » Tue Jun 16, 2009 6:43 pm

Like the title says, I found out today that my water pump is in critical condition right now. I had it replaced with a new timing belt at 102,000 miles and am currently sitting with 144,000 miles. I had a horrible time with the shop I used to use and have since switched to a much better mechanic. I was wondering if anyone knows where to get the timing belt, water pump, tensionsers, etc needed to do this replacement correctly with nothing but the best parts. I hate to have this happen and would rather not continue to get screwed by poor quality parts. Does toyota make a package deal that I can purchase? Or are their any other suggestions anyone could recommend?

Dealer. Toyota parts are the only ones I trust to use for items liek this. There are several dealerships that sell online at a 20% discount, and no tax. Just the shipping.
