Mine was $1450 for the water pump and install

Bakeme521 · 04-09-2013, 11:03 PM

I just did mine 2 weeks ago. 525 for the parts (pump, tstat, bolts) shipped but I waited for 3 days. Did the install myself on a lift, took about 3 hours.

Thats not to bad, how bad would you say the install is?

nickkg37 - how many miles on your car? How many years has it been since the car was born?

just hit 56k and the cars build date is 4/08. Does anyone know if there was a recall on these?

Tiago@VRSF · 04-09-2013, 11:57 PM

Search for a local indy shop, most can do them for around $1k locally or try and use a buddies garage/tools if you don't have one

07tundra · 04-10-2013, 01:55 AM

Exactly DIY and save its not hard a little time consuming. It is a tight area but it's worth doing it yourself and save that other 600 u can apply it toward something else.

blacksleeper · 04-10-2013, 10:11 AM

i wish they would make a better water pump for these cars so we dont have these problems

Tiago@VRSF · 04-10-2013, 10:19 AM

Replacing a waterpump at 60-70k is pretty standard on most cars

+1

But mine did go out at 36k so its kinda hit or miss. I think there is a poll where alot folks have put at what mileage the waterpump has gone out. Search it if yoy want to know

Miko226 · 04-10-2013, 10:28 AM

Mine took a dump at 63k as well I have extended warranty just had to pay my 100$ deductible which was better than 1500$ the dealer would charge you out of warranty

minivan · 04-10-2013, 10:29 AM

If anyone wants to buy a water pump, I have a brand new one with 3 aluminum bolts for sale.

hmmmm...kind of interesting statement as this is the only car that i had to replace a waterpump under 100k miles.

family cars / miles / water pump replaced

2006 toyota 4runner / 220k miles / no
2004 lexus ls430 / 160k miles / no
2007 vw jetta / 70k miles / no
2008 acura tl / 60k miles / no
2002 cadillac escalade / 200k miles / no
2000 honda accord / 200k miles / no
2008 kia sedona / 140k miles / no

a bunch of other older cars all well over 100k miles and we have never had to change a water pump...this is the only car i have actually had to take it in.

guess its my luck i suppose but im pretty sure this is the only car with this kind of issue and probably due to the high temps.
