    Sorry for the vague title, but I was wondering which seals were regularly replaced along with a timing belt and water pump job? I am having this done in the next few weeks and I want to make sure that the shop doing it will be replacing everything that should be with this job. I always hear about some seals being replaced with the timing belt and water pump. Thanks for the help!

    theres an o-ring where the water pump meets the block, and an o-ring along the outlet pipe of the water pump. and the thermostat gasket

    There are other seals to replace at the same time:
    Crankshaft
    Oil pump
    Camshaft
    Waterpump o ring

    I'd repalce the 2 tensioners as well as a precaution and the belt itself, if the old ones are still good then keep them for spares.
    These motors have everything driving off 1 belt and if anything goes, the sh1t hits the fan!
