On Scionlife I have read about quite a few water pumps failing early. Same motor, same pump? Probably just a freak thing...

Edit- Well what do you know, 59,000 miles and my pump has some crust below the weep hole. These water pump failures seem to getting more and more common.

You have coolant all over the place. I just took my hood off because I was fiddling around with something and sure enough I have coolant on the under side of the hood. I have nowhere the amount you did and there was none on the pulley or in the vicinity. Either way the bitch is being changed out next week.

ztrack.. Did you also install a NST pulley and possibly over tighten the pulley belt?

What's the deal with water pumps failing on NST pulley equiped engines? I don't think mine was affected by the pulley as the WP bearing noise started just a few miles post the NST installation and the antifreeze "crust" looked like it had been there awhile, though I didn't see it when installing the pulley.

My belts are definitely not to tight as I like them on the loose side. So long as they don't squeel, they're tight enough.

I have NST as well. And in the last 2,000 miles I heard a noise I knew shouldn't be coming from the engine bay. It was the water pump. I don't know what is considered to tight I can still wiggle the belt. And I had thought it was to tight so i loosened it slightly and then spun the belt so it wasn't to tight after installation.

THe pump's not covered by the warr. guys?
Why did'nt you just let the dealer shoulder the labor/cost?
Don't you get 5/60,000 on the drivetrain???

Yes we have that but with NSt they can say we over tightened the belt. Thus no warranty.

How much does a water pump cost? Did you get from Toyota or some place else like Auto Zone or NAPA?

Wonderful.
Did he give you any idea on about what milage the pumps go?
That's unacceptable, especially for a make like Toyota, supposedly "the best".
Thanks for the heads up, BTW.
Now I gotta start watching a waterpump on a brand freakin' new car........

The Genuine dealer water pump MSRP is about $100USD. I've seen it OEM on the net for $75USD.
Pump includes parts #8 & #9 in the sketch below.
Hope this helps.....

I agree, it's just kinda funny that most of us have an NST pulley installed.

Are you guys running the TRD rad caps too?
Perhaps too much pressure for the pumps seals?
Hope the Yaris does'nt turn out to be a Japanese Yugo.....
