King^Lee Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 Hi peeps. Brought my sti at weekend and comes with great service history, car is currently at 54k. It had the cam-belt done at 47k but i noticed on the invoices the waterpump wasnt done at the same time :/. My question is whats the percentage of waterpump failure will it last me another 4 years / 50k miles? Lee
Mr B Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 I would say yes. We only do pumps on 90,000+ plus. Not unusual for Jap original water pumps to last 130,000+ miles . Pump is not a dealer listed service item hence why not done but for cost of part & when mileage high it worth doing along with belt for extra belt safety/peace of mind & saving labour cost if pump decides leak shortly after belt service.
King^Lee Posted April 18, 2014 Author Posted April 18, 2014 Nice one thank you. On all cars iv owned i have always done water pump same time as the belt just to be on the safe side. but this info will make me less paranoid :)
