<p>I just replaced the timing belt and water pump on my 2002 Landcruiser. Also rear brakes. our friend who is a sales rep for an import auto parts company recommended the water pump be done the same time, as it would be less expensive to do while they are already replacing the timing belt. I once had a timing belt go on a relatively new car…it isn’t pretty.
Pretty routine maintenance , but the entire job was about $1000 . We had it done by a mechanic that our friend highly recommended.</p>
