- Water Pump Replacement on a 2007 Lexus ES350. Should be the same for a Toyota 3.5L Water Pumps also.
This video was made as a demonstration how to repair things and should not be done with out the proper training and safety equipment.

For those who need to know, the bolt for the belt tensioner pulley is reverse thread. Guy in the video didn't mention that.
Exactly first couldn't came loose and tried to tight it surprised me when came loose lol
Great informative vidio. A good rule to remember is , if a bolt is in the center of a revolving part , then it needs to tighten against the direction of its rotation. Hence! If a pulley rotates clockwise then the bolt in the center has to be tightened against its rotation., or it may loosen itself. You will find this on grinders fan shafts boat moters. Breaking a bolt off in the block will ruin your day. Love the vidio!
Lot of work involved to replace the water pump!
Yes a lot of stuff to take apart. Thanks for watching.
This video helped me a hell of a lot... WARNING HORROR STORY AHEAD... SO... AFTER REPLACING THE WATER PUMP... I simply wanted to replace all my noisy old pulleys... The two idler pulleys and the tensioner pulley... The idler pulleys went on and off no problem and really easy... The tensioner pulley had reverse threads and a slightly different washer from the other two pulleys... I DID NOT PAY ATTENTION TO THE TENSIONER PULLEY WASHER AND INSTALLED IT BACKWARDS... This simple mistake caused the pulley to not spin at all and I didn't notice... After starting the engine there was a loud brief squealing followed by the sound of a motor flying apart... Had I just reached down and gave that tensioner pulley a little test spin before installing the belt I would have saved myself days of regret and sorrow... I broke the tensioner right off at the spring point... It took me two long days to finally fix it...
Yes I have put the washer on wrong also. It is because sometimes the aftermarket pulleys are made different and you don't use the washer. I always spin them now and look to see if there are aligned. Thanks for watching
Thank you!!! I getting ready to tackle this. Great point!
Colossal! I've made this mistake on a Mazda MPV and broke the pulley bolt off in the engine & had the arduous task of extracting it. It appears that you either had the tensioner bolt too tight or re- installed the original washer and it was not needed. It is a good measure to spin the pulley to check for free movement & use blue licktite on the bolt so that it wont come loose.
Job done on 13 Lexus RX 350 , make sure lift the engine before attempt to remove bracket or pump pulley
Did you remove/loosen the bolts for the rear motor mount?
You made this job look easy, I’ve got a 2013 ES350 120k miles and my water pump pulley is making grinding noises and wiggles. Thanks to you I’m very confident in doing this project. God Bless!! Thank you for this super detailed instructional video!!!!
OK great. Just remember that it seams every car is a little different. One of the differents is that down near the motor mount there is another one behind that one to the left with 2 bolts you need to remove and the motor will lift up better. Thanks for wathing.
#The G Automotive And More Thank you!!!!!
Ryyihh
Boss you helped me out a lot. Great teacher you are.
Thank you very much for your great video.
Thanks for watching
Liked your video and by looking at your pry bar you are a veteran in the field.
Yellow Mac tool pry bar .
Thanks for sharing your knowledge
I had the matching pair of pry bars but the plastic handle dried up on one of them and broke off. They are from the mid 1980,s. Thanks for watching
Is this THE TIME to also change the timing belt? Or is it done without doing the disassembly twice?
This one is the 3.5L it has a timing chain. If you are doing a3.0L or a 3.3L then yes do the timing belt now.
Aren't all the 12mm water pump bolts the same length? Same with the 10mm ones?
They might be but I have been burned before. Just better to make sure and put them in the same holes.
Use of a worm clamp is not authorized 😝😝😝😝😜
I do not reuse the spring clamps because I have seen them leak and i had a transmission one blow off. Never again.
thanks for the video, great insight & explanations to the steps!! jus bought an 07 es350 & am tackling this job this week! Wish me luck stay blessed!🙌🏾
have one of these in the shop. had to go to lunch after seeing what bs lies ahead…😭😭😭😭
Its not that bad just time consuming.
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMoreThanks. It’s just nuts and bolts.
I'm looking forward to doing this on my car.
O yea you will have boat loads of fun doing this one. Thanks for watching
Good job on making so people can understand everything your doing thanks man.... I'm bout to get on it now don't even got to watch it twice
Doing this same job,video was awesome,😅 fast but thorough,great job bro💪🏾💯...
How many hours this take ?
Book time is 4.2 hours
Did you put any type of sealant on the water pump gasket?
If its the oe metal and rubber one I do not. If it is a paper gasket I do.
Thank you for the quick reply!
Been looking at an es350 07 with 150k miles but don't see the water pump was replaced yet. Hmm...
😅
Please help me. I just want to know the wires and location of the temperature sensor. I own a Lexus ES350 model year 2009. Before I bought the car, this sensor was canceled and I want to restore it. Thank you for your help.
It is on top of engine near where the transmission meets the engine. I don't have a very good picture. Thanks for watching
Thank you for the very detailed information
Good Job .. do you recommend change oil pump when l change the water pump? What els I need to change Toyota avalon 2011
Might be a good idea the change the drive belt tensioner and all the idler pulleys and the thermostat. Thanks for watching
To be clear the power steering pulley didn't have to be removed correct?
I didn't remove power steering pulley. Thanks for watching
I need torque for nuts for bottom engine mounts. Really hard to find
3x17mm and 2x14mm nuts.
Are you talking about the size socket that fits on them? I would think they are 10mm bolts or 12mm. 10mm is 57.3Nm and a 12mm is 99.8Nm. Thanks for watching
Dear friend thank you for a great video, I would to get information about the parts please if I could, parts number so may order them myself.. Thank you so much 👌
You really need to call a auto parts store because there can be yearly changes to parts. One year might not fit the next year even though same make and model. Thanks for watching
Blablabla🥱🖕
Waaaaaa 😼
What are you using to write/mark your bolt numbers and thermostat alignment onto the metal?
Its called a Super met-al metal tip paint marker. I have a white one and a yellow one. They are gerat. I used to use white out but it comes off to easly. Thanks for watching
I am doing this job tomorrow. Thanks for the video it will help me a lot.
Hey Alton how did it work out for you?
I am replacing a faulty radiator, hoses and transmission cooler lines on my 2008 Lexus es350 this weekend and was considering doing preventative maintenance and replacing the water pump and thermostat while I was at it. After watching your video, I'm not so sure anymore. Would you advise me to still replace the water pump and thermostat even though there are no apparent issues with it? Thanks
If its not broken don't fix it.
Or get it before if gets you.
Wouldn't want to drive somewhere far and be broke down.
Great clip.
Thank you!
Thanks man!!!!
How much would a job like this cost?
I don't do the pricing so I have no idea. Thanks for watching
This job looked intimidating but your video helped us along the whole way! Thanks!
Thanks for watching
Hey, that's not that terrible. Good job too!
Its alittle tight but not as bad as some. Thanks for watching
What’s the torque for the tensioners?
32 ft lb
Where is the torque settings bro?
M6 torque to 11.8Nm, M8 torque to 28.8Nm and M10 torque to 57.3Nm. THIS IS IN NEWTON METERS NOT FOOT POUNDS! Thanks for watching
Great job. Where are you located? It’s hard to find a great mechanic.
I am in the Washington DC area. Thanks for watching
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore Would love to contact you for a quote on this job.

@lordmazi enjoy your Renault reliability. /s
Do you have any idea how many hours of labor????
Sorry I don't know what we charged. I just fix them. Thanks for watching
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore i just was wondering how much time took it for you to complete the job
@@mrajj1261 All morning
book time says 10.5 hours lol.
I took 6 start to finish taking my merry time.
next time if i had to do it i reckon 4 hours if i needed to do it quick and on a car hoist
How many miles on engine?
This one only had 65k on it. Thanks for watching
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore thanks mine at 95k no problem yet lol
What a well-thought-out, user-friendly design . . . NOT. I just bought this model year and make and right off the bat had to replace lower PS return line, which wasn't a cake walk, but not *too* bad - after-market hoses were the same price as dealer for some reason . . . . now I see the temp gauge go to max and looks like there was NO coolant . . . well, refilling didn't help matters so I suppose the water pump is the culprit. Do these thermostats tend to stick closed? I have been hearing what sounds like a loose pulley, so my guess is the WP. Hey G, @16:21 I believe you meant the coolant overflow tank? Thanks for the video - pretty well made but . . . Dude, BLOW YOUR NOSE!!! >=-D
Sorry I can't change the way I sound. Thanks for watching
