I was wondering if someone could help me out here.

I have an 89 Pajero (imported) turbo diesel, with some cooling problems.

We took it to our mechanic, who diagnosed a faulty thermostat. This was replaced (with 2 hours labour....bit much, but anyway). Immediately following that, water started leaking from the water pump seal.

My wife took it back today, and was told we need a new water pump, and a new timing chain (at a cost of $900 just for parts).

Does this sound right?

Also, the car has 53000km's on the clock, which I am beginning to doubt. Can anyone advise a way of checking the approximate km's?

Cheers, Chris
