Default recommendation on water pump 09 250

I found several brands of water pumps on carparts.com ranging from $35 up to $165. Can anyone here recommend a reliable brand water pump for my 09 is250 please?

Aisin or an OEM part. Aisin makes the OEM parts so you're really just paying the premium for the Lexus/Toyota logo if you go that route. The Aisin can be had for $90 on Amazon.

This is the one I would use. It's the OEM one for your car. $87 from Rockauto

I would also use Toyota Coolant and maybe add a Redline wetter .

This will help you bleed the system.

Dealer (Toyota or Lexus, doesn't matter) or Amazon. You'll want the pink coolant (super long-life). An aftermarket choice would be Zerex Asian.
