So I woke up this morning, feeling great and heading to a TRD meet looking for some supra action. Then I heard this sqeaky sound coming from under the hood. At first I tought it was a drivebelt slipping, but when the car came a little hotter, it didn't stop. I pulled over to have a look under that hood and noticed that a little smoke was coming out of the timing belt cover. I think it's coming from the water pump and that the bearing might be weared.

Has anyone of you guys experienced this before? What do you think about this and can I still drive it a little just to get to a good garage? Since I don't have time neither the tools to do it myself...

Thanks for looking!

My timing belt is 10 000km old and cost me 175$ CAD all done... Think you should change garage tongue.gif . I think my problem would only be the water pump, but I will chek if smthg's wrong with the belt while being in there. The thing is I could do it myself, but it would be pretty long cause I'd check like 10 times each move I make to be sure it's well done. I also don't have time to do this with university stuffs...
