Update #2
Took the car to my regular shop and the mechanic informed me that the water pump has a small leak and also the water pipe looks pretty warned out from the fittings, he cant understand why the other shop couldn't take the time to figure that the pump had a small leak. I will be heading to mini world to pick up the pump and the water pipe.

Any other suggestions of checking while the shop is down there working on the pump? Thanks.

 

I think you should be set...just tell the shop to LOOK at everything and notate any other leaks specially oil around the TC tensiner.

 

Appreciate the help. Have a great holiday.

 

you too my friend
