How easy are the O rings to change on the water pump I think I have a very slight leak from them, is it worth just changing the whole thing or just the rings? also how long would it take a competent mech to change the water pump?

Cheers.

Yes mate you have to take the belt off, I can't see it taking more than an hour/hour and a half to do though with the right tools and knowledge.

Pretty sure you don't need to remove the waterpump to change the o rings, as it is on the side of the engine and all you need is a 10mm socket to undo the 2 bolts.

Replacement 0 rings and by pass pipe is about £20 from Lexus, I think? Will have to dig out an old invoice to confirm.

Mods:...WIM geometry setup & fine tune, K&N Air filter, Stainless steel A/C rings, Brodit phone kit, Stainless steel clock surround, B&M Shortshifter & LED Domelight, Maplight & Sun Visors, OEM Chrome exhaust tip, OEM rubber bootliner, Fan type windscreen washer jets, LS430 Side repeaters, OEM LE grille, OEM cargo net, Front OEM armrest
