My 95 Max SE is starting to slowly leak antifreeze, I'm suspecting the water pump is going. How hard of a replacement is this job? If I have it done, how much should I expect to have to pay? Thaks in advance.

The advice I've read has been if you're going to do the timing belt/chain in a car do the water pump at the same time.
I'd suspect the converse is true: If you're going to do the water pump, do the timing chain/belt at the same time.

my '96 maxima SE is having it's water pump replaced for leaking coolant as well. They suspect the pump is the problem. I was quoted $600.
Holy s*it! That's a lot of dough for a water pump replacement. It must be buried deep in the motor.
Wow. So if the shaft seal for the water pump goes, it fills the engine up with anti-freeze?
