Thanks

Thanks for all the input. Turns out it was the waterpump. Ended up paying to have it done totalling $550. Not the $400 something I was quoted with an aftermarket pump.

A little off topic. Blame it on global warming. Global warming just causes your car to get too cold! Ask Al Gore.

thanks white

Your answer sounds the most correct. I have looked, and looked and gone through the service manual and chilton with no avail. I know I'm not tackling the water pump myself. If I have some help...

Lights dim when Braking

My headlights dim a little when I press the brake. I figured it was the alternator or battery but both checked out good at the auto parts store. Any suggestions or similar experiences?

just a guess
