Toyota V6 GR-FE - Water Pump Replacement

This video will show you step-by-step how to replace the water pump on a '06 Toyota Camry V6 with the GR-FE engine. The pump's bearing was making a lot of noise at all RPM's along with the coolant reservoir dropping every week indicating a mild leak. Starting on or about '06, Toyota began using the GR-FE V6 engine, replacing the MZ-FE, on the Avalon, RAV4, Sienna, Venza and Lexus ES350 and RX350. So if your Toyota or Lexus has the GR-FE engine, the water pump replacement procedure is pretty much the same as the Camry. This is around a $700 job at the dealership. An Aisin OEM pump will run around $100, Toyota Coolant around $20 and estimate 3.5 hours of labor. I've recently used Gates WP with good success. They provide a lifetime pump warranty. Aisin is only 1 year.
