Lately my antifreeze has been leaking from somewhere around my timing belt. I can see antifreeze sorta splashing up, but this only happens sometimes. I checked all my hoses n they're ok, so im guessing i need to replace my water pump? reps for help:cheers:

look at it. I remember when my water pump busted, it was leaking from the hole on the water pump. You can see on the water pump too, if it leaked or not. There should be some kind of mark left on it like rust looking.

you should also get a new timing belt while you're at it.

smalls get a water pump timing belt cam seals front main seal all new driver belts (if they havent been replaced in awhile) and a tensioner. save yourself the money now from having to do it again later on. an hell if your motor is high mileage u might want to throw in a oil pump also.
