I highly recommend motorcepts in Richmond hill. My starter died on me but they were able to order and install it in a day. Speak to Leo.

Plus 1 on motorcepts. Just did my water pump/ thermostat with them 2 weeks ago. No issues. Replace your coolant hoses as well, as they might be brittle at this point.

I hear nothing but good things about ZNM but I doubt op with his water pump bad will be able to drive all the way out or tow his car to NJ.

+1 For Matt at ZNM. Get it towed there if you have the good AAA. Nothing but great experiences with him, and I spend a LOT of time there..

Same for motorcepts..been going to them for all major fixes. Was having over heating problems and after my warranty mechanic couldnt fix it just decided to pay out of pocket. Motorcepts gave me my car back within a day and a half .
