Water pump OEM FORD or OEM Toyota
Reviews
I got a water pump there for 80 dollars ford wanted to sell me for $560, I've spread the good word ever since
Pros: good price
Had a friend rebuild his 22RE, guy ordered his parts from eBay. Parts to replace which I believe is a must, water pump, t-stat, oil pump, timing chain and tensioner.
Pros: parts are a must
Over the weekend this is how I did the water pump. I didn't have 2 hydraulic jacks, so I had to come up with some other idea. When I took out the water pump, I think the seal was starting to leak. Cleaned up area and reinstalled with new water pump.
Pros: new water pump installed
Cons: seal was starting leak
I've also got a bad water pump.
Pros: diagnosed bad water pump
Vehicle:
Toyota 4runner
That looks like the water pump but I can be wrong. Also, there is no dipstick for the transmission anymore. Depending on the engine, there is a drain bolt on the side of the transmission on the driver side I believe near the drivetrain.
How many miles do you have? Its probably time to change the water pump if it's making noise and if it is, it needs to be replaced before it causes a whole world of hurt to your wallet.
Cons: making noise
Vehicle:
Toyota Camry
This is why I’ve avoided the 3.5/3.7 Duratec engines in transverse (front wheel drive) platforms. It’s just fine in rear wheel drive applications as those use an external pump driven by the serpentine belt.
Pros: external pump fine
Cons: internal pump avoided
Vehicle:
Ford
Yup, that's happens when they decided to put water pump INSIDE the engine. Ask me why i would never own a newer Ford. Oh, and a timing belt cooled by engine oil, what could possibly ever go wrong? Last 10 years Ford has managed to come up dumbest engine designs.
Cons: water pump inside engine, dumb design
Vehicle:
Ford
I had the same issue with the same Ford motor 3.7 in my Mazda Cx9, it is internal water pump
Cons: internal pump issue
Vehicle:
Mazda
I had one go bad on my Ford flex... The pump is inside the timing chain cover. Most places have to drop the engine, I got lucky and the place I went the guy was able to do it without removing the engine.
Cons: pump went bad, difficult to access
Vehicle:
Ford
The 3.5 engine is garage with this design. Had an Edge from new and out 150,000 miles on it in 13 years. I was always dreading this failure and luckily dodged it before selling it.
Cons: poor design, dreaded failure
Vehicle:
Ford
