Hi Guys,
I think my water pump is going. it just started making this squealing noise yesterday. I was wondering if anyone has changed theirs before and what is involved in doing it. any replies would be appreciated. thanks. -------------------- 3sgteing.

Thanks guys for the quick reply. I was hoping I didn't have to mess with the timing belt. its just something about the word "timing" that scares me. I'm debating if I should just leave this to the professionals, even though I don't like them touching the car. I have done a lot of work on the car myself, but not much in that area other than thermostat, alternator and power steering pump replacement.
Can this be done in an afternoon or is it all day vs operator dependent? thanks -------------------- 3sgteing.
