When i bought the car back in march i had cambelt and fan belt both replaced at the same time and it hasnt done it up untill i had the water pump changed. It started off with a gradual churp and now since its got a lot colder its turned into the horrid screech which i hear everytime the car is...
A garage did my bearings under warranty ages ago not exactly sure which ones though now ive the droning back and took it to a new garage and they told me to leave it a bit longer so it could get worse and they could tell exactly which one it is must admit its only very faint droning when im on a...
I tried the wd40 idea didnt work very well, it got on to the belt a made it slip through all gears, gone now though. It sounds different than that could it be the water pump anyone no what noises these make? i no theere not meant to make noises which if it is this im gonna have to take it...

Alex M mine has done 76k did it stop come summer time? I dont think i could put up with it all year round! this will be the first winter ive had with the car and its only started d0oing it recently since its been really cold. I had the new water pump fitted a couple of months ago and its done...
The garage told me the shocks are fine all engine mounts are fine, would i need to replace the whole mount or could i just get it taken off and refitted? is it a difficult job? what could i expect to pay for this job? would you say a toyota mechanic would have the knowledge to do this?
isnt it just one belt does everything on the 16v water pump power sterring pump etc maybe it is just the cold it just sounds horrible goes within a few moments though......
I recently had a new water pump fitted, although its all working fine whenever my car is started from cold though there is this horrible squeeking/ chirping it sounds like a belt is slipping. Ive had it back in the garage recently for a winter service and a couple of other things and i did...

Iknow the k&ns melt if they get to hot! would they be one of the better ones if they didnt melt coz soon i will be changing the thermo and fan switch for the cooler option................
Was wondering about one, i want the fan to kick in a bit earlier at the mo its 3/4 before it comes on, where could i get one from? has anyone else had one fitted? And what sort of price could i expect to pay?
