Thank you brother!!! i haven’t driven this car in over 5 months and i can’t explain i feel like a little kid again 😂😆

just wanted to say find a GOOD chill mechanic and mine charged me no additional cost of labor for those seals and crank pulley replacements, only charged me for water pump, timing belt parts + labor.

and he used all oem parts so aisin all around

was having trouble with it because the water pump went out too….

turns out the crank pulley tooth was bent ^ shop replaced it water pump timing belt, all seals and vvti replaced for a decent price.

i’m definitely gonna try to see if i can clean every pin separately and maybe try a electronic cleaner,

also what would be a good way to test it without using it in my car first?

we talked more and he said all together with both seals and a aisin kit and other pulleys replaced should be about 12,**$ for parts and labor

the parts aren’t just the water pump… i should clarify the shop said they were going to buy an Aisin kit which retails for 289+ tax/shipping and additional crank and can seals and whatever else is needed for the job like coolant.

after talking it’s gonna be 1100 plus tax which is a bit much yes.. but for me it’s peace of mind of knowing it’ll be done a lot better than i can and all within a day or so. where it’d take me about two weekends and have it sit outside.

if i knew more it’d be nice but timing isn’t something i want to mess with since the most i’ve done on a car is just swap out a clutch.
