i cant post pics it tells me they are too big

resize them using a program such as irfanview (do a google search for this free utility)

Upload them to photobucket (or other suitable free online program) and just copy and paste the IMG code. Thats how I do it. :D

when i took the pics i reached in and it was a bit loose ,,,i think its a waterpump ,,,,,,,this sucks bad i hope shes not out for long and i hope i dont have to sell a kidney to fix her ,,,,,do you know around a fan ,,waterpump hoses and a shroud should run and maybe a radiator ,,:bawling:

thanks

pic up

Look around on www.realoem.com

You can find some pricing on there for parts at least. But labor hours wise it is a big job, probably about 4 - 8 labor hours total at shops labor charge rate = total job cost of over $1k. (labor hours depend on amount of damage)

If you are decent with the 'ol tool set you may be able to do it yourself, but it is a decently involved job as you can see in this recent thread...

By the way, you posted the url from the address bar on photobucket... :rofl:

Go into your album and click on the picture, then click/copy the img code from the list under the picture. Thats the one you need.:thumbup:
