To replace the water pump on a 2005 Toyota Solara with a 4-cylinder engine, start by disconnecting the negative battery terminal and draining the coolant. Remove the drive belts, timing cover, and timing belt as necessary to access the water pump. After unbolting the old pump, clean the mating surface and install the new pump with a new gasket, reassemble the timing components, and refill the cooling system with fresh coolant. Finally, check for leaks and ensure everything is properly reconnected before starting the engine.

Where is the water pump on a Toyota Solara?
It would be helpful to know what year Solara you're asking about and whether you have the 4 or 6 cylinder engine. For the 2004 and later Solara the water pump is on the front of the engine (right side of the car) and is driven by a belt. Whether you have the 4 or 6 cylinder engine access to the pump is through the right side wheel well. This may be true of the earlier Generation I car as well. If your water pump is leaking or needs replacement for some other reason it willl be helpful if you download the repair manual (at least the cooling system portion) from Toyota's website or purchase the appropriate Chilton or Haynes manual for your car.
Does a 2002 Toyota Solara have a timing belt?
The V6 engine has a timing belt that's scheduled for replacement every 90 thousand miles. It's strongly suggested the water pump be changed at the same time since everything that has to be removed to replace the pump is already off for the belt replacement. The 4 cylinder engine has a timing chain that does not need servicing. Cheers, Gadget
