So like clock work at 134k my cooling system pipe broke. I could try to do the fix but instead of taking on this big job I took it to my trusted indi, and I have a quote of $495 for the replacement of water pump and the other two pipes. What do you think of that quote? __________________ ***SOLD***The Ultimate Dying Machine!!!

I would suggest repalcing all the hoses and clamps along with the pipes, easier to do while it's all apart anyway. __________________ No more ti. | | | 08-11-2010, 08:52 PM | #3 | Member Join Date: Mar 2010 Location: Atl Posts: 57 | i got quoted 475 for my waterpump this morning. That was just the pump though im pretty sure, I probably should have had them do everything. -oh and mine made it to 148K but man at the sound the pump makes!

I think I got a good deal. I had a new radiator in the car about 2 years ago. __________________ ***SOLD***The Ultimate Dying Machine!!!
