Noticed something leaking for bottom of my car. A few days later car got extremely hot, luckily had just arrived home when I noticed. Coolant reservoir was completely empty. I put the two together and figured I'd been leaking coolant. After reading all the issues about engine bolts being stripped, I am nervous about trying to replace the water pump.
This is the second time the water pump has failed. Once at 155 thousand miles and once at 77 thousand miles. So the pumps only last about 77- 78 thousand miles. Cost for first pump was 327. Not sure what second one will cost.
