I have a leak out of the waterpump (reserve empty after 4-5 days, visible constant drip while engine is running) and want to know if this is a DIY kind of project. I did it on my old 95 Sentra, took a while but went pretty smooth...

That side of the engine is pretty cramped, but it LOOKS like it shouldn't be too big of a problem. If not, what kind of price am I looking at to have this thing replaced by a mechanic?

your right, it is cramed in the left side of the motor (if you are facing the car). I looked at it, and I have a friend that is a mechanic, and there shop did it in 2 hours. The pump has to be pressed on, and they said it went smooth. I also got a deal, and had it done for $120. I called for a estimate, and it was $75/hr. And in the book, it calls for the mechanic to take 3.0 hrs. So your looking at around $175-210. and that is just for the labor. I picked up my own water pump. I guess If I would have had the chiltons book, I may have took a crack at it with some friends. Good luck.

That looks a little too involved, especially in those tight spaces. Any cheap mechanics in NYC?
