Is220D Water Pump

[Monocle]

Hi All,

I had a service yesterday and I was informed I need a new water pump as the current one is leaking. The quote was for €475 (£425) for parts and labour. I am fairly handy when it comes to working on cars so I would be confident in carrying the repair out myself. Would any of you recommend doing or not doing this myself? Has anyone done it before? I saw a new pump on eBay for £60.

Thanks in advance.

BTW, service was good. Need new pads on front needed. Quoted €320 parts and labour. Bought new bads on EBC for €60 delivered and will fit without difficulty myself.

My IS220D got through two water pumps in 120,000 miles. The first time it was replaced under the extended warantee, the second time I got my local garage to replace it at half the price that the same repair would have cost through the Lexus dealer.

Good luck with the repair.
