Hmmph...my mom's water pump just quit!

She was driving to work and by the time she got there, started steaming...so embarrassing in a 600. Looked in the garage, saw a puddle of coolant on the floor...so, leaking as well. Anyhow, waiting for the flat bed to pick it up. BTW, it's an '04 CL600 with 62K on the odo. This is approximately 6 months after the ignition coils got replaced on both sides. OUCH!
