Hi all,
I am having my IMS done as the clutch and flywheel needed replacing. My car has 74K on it. Also doing the RMS and pan gasket plate.
A common issue I have heard about is the water pump. I believe mine is original but not completely sure. What is the failure rate of water pumps and life expectancy?
Is there any other maintenance items I should be wary of?

Thank you!
