Hi guys, A few weeks ago I bought a 1996 Celica GT Convertible 5MT with 184k on it as a project car. It appears to have a commonly reported whining or howling from the engine and is probably the water pump. I'm trying to get tools and parts together to tackle the job of opening the timing cover...

In a video of timing belt and water pump replacement, I think it's Car Nut he says you can the take the water pump out without taking out the back timing cover, it doesn't look that way to me, than again I think it was a Highlander he was working on, anyone been able go take the water pump out...

While changing out the drive-belt (serpentine belt) on our 2018 Rav4 55,000 miles I noticed dried coolant about an inch long from the weep hole of the water pump (coolant pump). Is this normal or a sign of the part needing to be replaced?

Hello, I drive a 2001 Toyota Camry LE with the 5SFE 4 cylinder. Currently have 120,000 miles on it. A few days ago I was driving and my engine temperature went red hot, so I immediately pulled over to see what the problem was. Turned out the top of the radiator had a hairline crack, and I had...

So I’m working on an engine replacement in a 2012 Scion XB. We picked up a remanufactured engine for a decent price and got to work. I got the old engine out and as I began swapping stuff over to the new engine I noticed that the port for the water pump wasn’t there. Everything lines up nice...

Amateur/ broke YouTube mechanic here... So I had noticed a rough idle when I parked it last week, but ran and idled fine the next day. When I got home though I turned onto my street and all of a sudden it sounded very rough with a loud sound coming from the belt area. Didn't see anything out...

Hey y'all, I have a 2011 corolla with 140k miles and this annoying ticking sound started about 4-5k miles ago. It sounds like its coming from the valve cover but I've also seen posts where people said it was the water pump. Dealerships shop foreman could reproduce the sound but after looking...

Ok, so this was a tough choice for me and I am curious of other peoples point of view in regards to some repairs I just green lighted to my local independent shop. I have a 1997 Camry with the 4cyl that I bought about 1 1/2 years ago. I bought it due to the fact that in my opinion both the...

Hey all. So I’m having to replace my head gasket. Yay. It also PAST time to replace the timing belt and water pump, as members pointed out. I’m also loosing power steering fluid slowly from what appears to be a bad seal (no noticeable change in performance or noise). So, i find myself...

My parents gave me the car so long as I fix it up, I'm replacing the water pump. But I'm missing all the bolts and nuts. So it'd be a ton of help if anybody could tell me the bolts I need, the oil filter housing is also missing the bolts. If possible the tourqe spec would be helpful as well

Hey all, I recently bought a 2001 4Runner SR5 (2wd) last november, and it's finally time to give it some much-needed TLC... For context, this is a 5VZ-FE engine with ~260k miles on her. I have only done multiple oil changes and automatic transmission drain & fills since owning this car. I...

At 80,000 miles, during routine oil change and tire rotation, dealer service tech says water pump and axle boots are leaking. This is a 2017 Toyota Highlander, our third Highlander. We have never had this problem with previous models.

I was on the HWY yesterday driving home from work, cruising at approximately 130 Km/h when suddenly the CHECK ENGINE LIGHT comes on, Saying CHECK ENGINE, VISIT YOUR DEALER, and about 10 seconds later DRIVE START CONTROL MULFUNCTION - VISIT YOUR DEALER. I noticed that the engine temperature...

I drive a 3rd gen 4runner (2002 sr5) And it’s been about 2 weeks since I have changed my heater core. It was making an awful smell with smoke coming out so I replaced it. Sometime goes by and yesterday the smoke and smell came back. Now this morning I had no heat but the rear heat worked. I’m...

My 2001 HL has a slight shake in the steering wheel. It started in December with a shake in the steering wheel typically around 65/70 mph, but it wasn’t always. When I rotated the tires, the shake became more pronounced, so I rotated them back. I got the tires rebalanced to see if that was the...
