Aisin water pump, Mitsuboshi or Bando belts, and replace the radiator as a preventative measure with a Denso unit.
Another vehicle the rad got low and the stream pretty much melted the top where it connected to the hose. New rad was on backorder and I needed a car so I cut the melted but off at a clean angle and attached a chunk of ABS pipe using high-temp JB weld which I reattached the hose too after it set. I regularly checked it over the next 1-2 weeks until the shop got a new rad in and had no issues.
I replaced mine at 129k miles due to a small leak in the bottom of the radiator. I purchased an OEM Denso one on Amazon for 220 and it's been working great, no issues with trans temp as well.
'07 V6 SR5 I replaced my leaking rad with a Denso four years ago and it's been absolutely rock solid. **NOTE** I'm not sure if this is still the case but some Denso rads have a couple little notches cut into the sides which are sometimes mistaken for damage as they are not neatly done (literally looks like someone just tapped it with a grinder). These notches are to allow the rad to expand a bit when the metal heats. They are necessary and part of the design even though they sure *look* like damage.
I have a denso radiator on my 03 4th gen. I changed my radiator for a denso one after it started leaking 5 years ago. It's been over 50k miles and it's going strong.
I put a Denso in my ‘04 V8 about five years ago, replacing the original that had around 200k on it. No problems so far.
Have had good experiences with Denso & Koyo.
Shortly after owning it I had to replace radiator, Dan shroud. Then my power steering rack and CV died. Just recently my master break cylinder just died
The MVP radiator and the Denso aftermarket are identical, both say Denso. The main difference between the OEM and the MVP/Denso is the OEM is 2 Core with a radiator thickness of 1.075 inches thick. The Denso is 1 Core with a radiator thickness of 0.663 inches thick. I measured the thickness using a digital caliper. Another difference is the transmission connection lines, the MVP/Denso looks like a cheaper aluminum, and the OEM is a heftier non aluminum metal. As a side note, after searching the internet and YouTube, some people have leaks at the radiator line after a couple of years with the Denso aftermarket ones. Next time I will be sticking with the OEM model, I just don’t have time to return the Denso and order another OEM one.
I did replace one with oem and fail in less than a month denso brand
