Hi all hope someone can help! have a 1999 2.4 v6 leaking water from pump. can anyone tell me best way to replace pump, and best place to get new? thanks in advance

you need to bob the bumper off and drop the front panel forward and strip the cambelt off. the water pump is in the middle and is driven off the back of the belt.

crank pin and the cam setting bar that goes across the cam pulleys bank to bank. ideally a puller too, to bob the cam pulleys off.
