i really dont know what they are referring to as the auxillary pump, maybe ill take some time out tomorrow and go see what i can find on mine (maybe its a 2nd generation thing bc i see the one guy has 2004 listed as his model year), however nothing it mentioned in either the service manual or the parts manual that i have found yet, ill let you know what i find, but i would love to see pictures from some of these people with the supposed location of this thing.

Thats interesting. so whats the pumps purpose? it says under what conditions it functions but not what its job is?
Just by reading it i dont think this would be my problem. But It doesn't hurt to find it. is the right fender well the passenger side or driver side?

based ont he picture in the manual id say passenger, but it shouldnt be the cause of overheating problems since it is just there to make sure the rear heater core has enough flow that the rear passengers dont freeze in the winter.
EDIT: its passenger side, on the firewall right behind the stock air filter box.

Well, guess everyone learns something new. Now we know there is such thing. doesn't really help but w/e right? lol
I might have to pay 100+ dollars for a diagnostics. Just to find out what the problem is. =/ I don't want it over heating come the start of school. which is less than two weeks away
