Did the waterpump seize without warning? I had a Honda that had a noisy pump that got progressively worse. When the noise stopped the pump had seized :-). (And self-destructed) My point is: I'd be surprized to have a pump seize out of the blue and ta= ke the timing belt with it. On my EV the waterpump developed a leak at 41K. It was recommended to replace the timing belt as well as most of the labor is the same for both= procedures. Got the pump replaced under the powertrain warranty and paid= the extra $ for the timing belt. Ken 104303.704@compuserve.com
