My first noise - Toyota Yaris Forums

I want to agree with you on the water pump because it seems like a common issue for the Yaris and it's coming from that general area of the engine bay. However... shouldn't I see the engine running a little hot if it's the water pump? The scangauge has been showing pretty consistent temps between 181 and 186 since I bought the scangauge four months ago. Any input is appreciated.

As long as it's still pumping, the engine won't run hot....even if it's making noise.
