Just wondering if kaya ba gumawa ng ganun repair or replacement? Or mas ok sa speedyfix? Any other shop that you can recommend? Its for my corolla 1997 1.6 gli. Since im going to replace the water pump, what other parts should i also include para sulit ako sa labor.

Usually water pump sinasabay yan kapag nagpapalit ng timing belt. If malapit ka na mag due for timing belt replacement might as well isabay mo na. Bale magyayari nyan labor for timing belt change ang babayaran mo. Isasama na lang yung water pump kasi magbabaklas na din naman. GMB is a good replacement brand. Ano bang issue ng water pump? Hindi naman agad bumibigay yan eh. Radiator naman, just go for brandnew replacement. Kung may budget naman. Might as well palit na din ng upper and lower rad hose and engine thermostat. Para wala na sakit ng ulo.

Bumigay na yung water pump malaki na yung leak kaya madalas mainit engine. Yung oil sealdba kasali dun sa baklas? Last palit ko ng oil seals 2014. 120k na mileage ng sasakyan ko

"Might as well" lang naman yun kung may budget ka para isang labor na lang. Tanong ka na lang muna kung magkano papalit ng water pump. Kung halos ka presyo na ng labor sa pagpalit ng timing belt, mas maganda syempre kung isabay mo na. Regarding oil seal, mura lang naman yan so kung madadaanan along the way sa pag access ng water pump mas magandang palitan na din.
