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! -------------------- -PHILI-  |

So like some of you guys said, it was actually the timing belt bender that was jammed. So it'll cost abit less that I tought. In some strange way, the belt wasn't weared much so I don't have to change it... Anyways, it's only 10000km old so. Thanks for all the infos guys!
