belt, that is, at 175,000 miles. The dealer said it was getting cracks in it. What is the average life you guys have gotten out of the waterpump belt? I figure 175,000 is pretty good, if the second one lasts as long, the car will long be relegated to the junk yard before it wears out. By the way, the waterpump itself, is the original.


-Mark- '99 Mystique LS, totally original (including the original water pump and the premium stereo)! Bought new in December 1998 for $21,000. 208,000 miles
