It's water pump time. I read the how-to at Q45.org which seemed somewhat straight forward but I have a couple of questions...It says to remove the underbelly pan--Can the WP be installed from the top side? Also how do you loosen the fan belt? The FSM just says to loosen it.

ThanksNick

There are four bolts holding the fan to the pump, I am sure there is a picture some where in the FSM.

Best done from the bottom side unless you have tons of Advil.

Where is the adjustment bolt for the belt tensioner?

The FSM details this... or perhaps it's in the owner's manual under DIY. The belt tensioners are loosened by first loosening the center nut, and then turning the bolt on the tensioner that sits 90 degrees above or below the tensioner.
