I know it's been a long time since you posted this, but wanted to say thank you so much for the great video. Changed out my water pump today using your instructions exactly and everything went very smoothly.
The recommendation to remove the motor mount made the job much simpler! I raised and lowered the engine as needed to gain access. I was grateful that the gasket came off completely with the old pump - the gasket surface looked like a bear to clean. I was initially unsure whether the noise was in the timing chain or the water pump. I pulled the drive belt off and started the car. The noise was gone, so I knew it was either the water pump, compressor, or alternator. Then it was easy to trace it to the water pump. The pump laster 175,000 miles, with original antifreeze, still red.
Another thing to take and replace is the thermostat which is on the lower rad hose going into engine block. And since the belts are there, get them too. There are 2 belts, steering pump and water pump.
Great video,a friend change alternator belt,but came short for the new one only take one bolt from the alternator ,he know is a second bolt in the alternator ,if take it off ,will help to install the belt ,is a correct belt.Any idea welcome.Thanks
Sometimes if you take out the short adjustment bolt out you can swing the alternator past the shortest slot and get a shorter belt on then swing it back and line it up to put the adjustment bolt back in.
Always buys OEM water pump on this vehicle. Because aftermarket never last as long than OEM products. Because OEM water pump from this Scion XB comes with steel gasket not paper gasket. I used to have 2005 Scion TC with 225k no issue and problem and also after replacement of the water pump it still going strong.
Your right! Aftermarket usually doesn't last as long as OEM, if the logistics allowed I would have used OEM. So far 50k on the new one with no problems. Thanks for watching!
@@northsidevideo1938 I have an 05 Camo Green xB. 319k. Mine tends to run Hot..... Looks as though I'll be attacking a water pump in the next few days. Thank you for your video.
It's not too bad to replace. With that many miles I'd be curious to know if the impeller is worn out. I've seen it before. I'll be making another video on replacing a front wheel bearing soon as well.
Odd...the Toyota replacement from Toyota ( or even as bought from Aisin, the manufacturer)...both include a gasket with the replacement water pump. If Toyota doesn't use a gasket....it has to be part of the original build process only....not for replacements.
The new pump doesn't come with a pulley. You remove the pulley from the existing water pump and mount it to the new one. No need to buy a new pulley, it should still be in good condition.

Good call! It makes sense to replace everything while its apart and easy to get at.
GREAT video. I gotta change my belts and just thinking about changing the water pump while Im there.
Thank you 😊
Thx! I hope it helped!
Good job. Nice video.
great thank you

I've replaced everything but the water pump in the last 2 months, water pump is Last Resort.

Does this affect the timing in any way like some cars or can I just change it out ?
It's an externally driven water pump, it's run by the drive belt, not the timing belt.
No issues with timing.
Hope that helps.
Thanks for watching!
That is only Nissan V6 and Subaru H6 engine that engineer those vehicle like that. I believe some of GM does it too.
What where your symptoms before figuring the water pump was bad?
Bearing noise, no other symptoms.
Interesting that the aftermarket water pump came with a gasket. Toyota doesn’t use a gasket for the water pump. It uses Toyota brand gasket sealant
They probably include a gasket because of loose tolerances compared to oem.
Odd...the Toyota replacement from Toyota ( or even as bought from Aisin, the manufacturer)...both include a gasket with the replacement water pump. If Toyota doesn't use a gasket....it has to be part of the original build process only....not for replacements.
Is it necessary to change the pulley on the new water pump?
The new pump doesn't come with a pulley.
You remove the pulley from the existing water pump and mount it to the new one.
No need to buy a new pulley, it should still be in good condition.
how many miles on the first water pump?
Tim Anderson 130k
wow, mine has made it to 305,000. BTW thanks for the tutorial; i have the factory manual but it does not cover this very clearly,
Tim Anderson 300k is awesome! They are definitely reliable, one of the more favorite cars that I've owned.
Thanks for watching!
