Well, you can add me to the list of water pump failures. Mine went on on 131 at D avenue. $570 at Don Seelye. Hopefully I won't have to worry about it for a long long time now!!!

No just stay away from stealerships. Do it yourself. Very easy job. You buy the parts and I'll do it for $100. A little late now though. wink
