Another great video. Wish my Focus was that easy - when my water pump failed, I had to take off the timing belt, covers, wheel arch liner and the cocking engine mount before I could even begin on the pump. I got the whole kit (Gates) for under £100 but it took me a few hours.

Great video and also will help later Auris and Avensis with Valvematic engines as they use the same pump and belt. The belt adjustment system is one I am familiar with, as it was the same on my old Mk1 Avensis - I now own a Mk3 Avensis Tourer 1.8 Valvematic.

Very informative indeed. Great video, work explained in layman's terms. Credit to you for making it.

Top video, just ordered the water pump and antifreeze. Thanks Rob

Fantastic video, I was surprised this weekend with a completely seized water pump. It was noisy some days before that, but on engine start the other day I heard a loud belt whining noise and saw smoke coming from the engine compartment. Since we live in a cold climate it's not that uncommon to see, but I shut the engine off at once anyway. Just as I shut the engine off, the whining sound suddenly went away and the alternator light came on. Opened the bonnet, and sure enough, the belt was gone. :) The water pump was completely seized, and won't turn at all. Now all it has is a huge burn mark from where the rubber went over it.

Cheers mate, I need to do the pump in my work wife's car for her and this will definitely help.

Really helpful video, thanks Rob!

A surprising amount of room to work in there. Nice job. I still get parts from GSF on this side of the world

Did this on a 1.0 Yaris this year, same noise but not leaking fluid surprisingly. Loads of play in the bearing.

Thanks to your excellent video.

Great vid really helped. Thanks for posting.

Danke

Excellent video!!

Hello, nice video! Do you know where the coolant block bleeder valve is for Auris 1,33?

Hie I need help on Toyota auris 200d rs 2008 diseal high pressure pump replacement, I have just replaced the pump, but the car is starting only with quick start and rave even for more than 5 minutes but the moment you remove your foot from the pedal it die down not idling at all

Have you done Toyota auris headlight replacement?

Top marks. Nice video!

Did you have to bleed the cooling system after this? or is it ok to just refill with the coolant - Great Video.

Very good video!!

I would like to know if all auris 2008's problem?

Is Metelli a good brand for waterpumps and tinmingkits? BTW good job. Keep up the good work!

Great video thanks!!

Thank a lot brother. You just help me change my water pump. What tool do you use to unscrew...? Can we get it on amazon?

I got same car same problem I’ve just bought new pump can I put same coolant back in that’s drained out or new stuff ? Thanks

How long should it take for the thermostat to open and fan cut in?

Great video, i have a smilarish sound on my 1.6 VVTI from 2008, it comes and goes, sometimes it sounds almost like this car, but when i rev it to about 4k rpm and let it go, the sound stops, but there is still a periodic sound all the time with the engine that sounds like a barring almost failing, it's most hearable up to 1800rpm, after that it "dissapears", unless it is sounding just like this car, the other day the car was sounding somewhat like this non stop, didn't matter if i red lined it, but when it cooled off it didn't have this sound. The sound is located to the same area as the water pump is, but is there any other stuffs down there that might cause a sound like this? I know that my AC was changed out by toyota just b4 i bought the car almost 1 year ago, but my idea is that the water pump is what i have issue with. Is there any idea to take of the belt and feel by hand on all stuffs to see if i can feel some lose barrings? or does it only work for the water pump like u did in the beginning of the video Thanks in advance btw!

Is it the same process with the 2008 auris 2.0d4d

did you use a denso waterpump? what brand is the original?

Golden geeza u are

Dellitalia Grazie mille!😆
