Jul 23, 2008 - My water pump and timing belt just took a dump today on my way to class. Steam coming out from under the hood and sounds of the bearing going.Took my 95 Legend to the Honda shop today, should be fixed with all new belts, water pump, trans service and ac service on friday. Going to costs a small fortune.

Oct 22, 2008 - Thanks for sharing. My waterpump died on me the other day and I took my car to Firestone. They showed me the pump and the fins are really worn down, as well as the pulley. They claim that the engine may have overheated, but the Temp. indicator on the dashboard didn't go to the hot zone when I was driving.

Feb 18, 2009 - Easy does it.... One remark: wear on the Lucas alternator front bearing may also generate a similar noise from the rotor touching the stator. This at least happened to mine last year and I put a second hand one in after renewing its brushes.
