Wow, this is why I love this forum and the people in it!! So many great response and I appreciate them all…gives me better insight. I know someone noted earlier that they wouldn’t replace the radiator if it had no sign of failure. How about the water pump with 130k? Nothing showing in the weeping hole. No abnormal bearing noise etc. I’m assuming it’s gotta be soon for it to start failing unless if the 4Runner water pumps have incredible longevity. I’ve been avoiding a preventive replacement for awhile because I’ve had not the best experiences with the Toyota dealer mechanics, some are incredible I’m sure just not in my area. I’m unable to find someone like an independent mechanic that knows a lot about 4Runners yet. I’m assuming that’s because they rarely break down and I think the 4Runner community on a whole does more of their own DIY maintenance compared to others but this is just an assumption. Changing the water pump DIY looks intimidating to say the least and I’ve done basic maintenance like replacing spark plugs, engine belt and brakes. I appreciate again all the responses and I’m amazed at how much one can learn on this forum.
