Congrats, great looking car. You will enjoy her immensely. I'm surprised we have so many comments without someone pointing out that your front wheels are on the wrong sides. It isn't a big deal, but the blades are supposed to cut forward. Again, congrats on the purchase.

No, it's a known issue. Many of us had the same problem with our Fs. This same pump is used on a few Lexus products, they've all seen this issue. Aisin just didn't quite get it right in 2008. They have a new part number now, so once you get it changed, you're good for normal service life.

You still have time on the powertrain warranty, and the water pump is covered under powertrain, not bumper to bumper. Powertrain is 72 months or 70k miles. None of the '08s are out of powertrain warranty for time, only for mileage.

Clifford 590.4x paired with the DBALL bypass module and proximity sensor. I like to remote start my car and warm it up before i drive it. A bit old school I know. And also to keep delinquents from around my car.

I have an '08 and I had mine changed in Feb'13. When I originally called the dealer, the guy said it was out of warranty. Then I check our manuals and it's clearly stated that the water pump is covered under the powertrain warranty. Don't let them fool you!

Thanks for pointing that out. Good eye. Thank you all for the compliments and the welcome. Just got my car back yesterday. Man I missed her. Just got my alarm delivered and will be installing soon.

For the key bypass module.

Remember now. Your alarm will only be as good as your installer.
