I've done those except for the water pump. (Well, I paid someone to do the idler pulley - it was not easy to get to.) How many miles did she get out of the original water pump?

Changed housing and t-stat at 50000kms as a preventative measure. No apparent issue with water pump yet….. now at 54000 kms.

Our w/pumps are pretty solid its the 5l variety that can be vulnerable
