    Water pump failure after cambelt/waterpump change

    Water pump failure after cambelt/waterpump change

    Was leaking from the shaft bearing seal not the main 57mmx4mm one. I’ve swapped it out for a circolli pump from ECP so fingers crossed, have fitted a few of them to mainly French cars and been good so far…,

    Water pump failure after cambelt/waterpump change

    So at Christmas I replaced cambelt / tensioners / rollers and waterpump/coolant with INA items, all seemed well and after a test drive the coolant level was correct. Roll on a month later and I start having to top up the coolant. Maybe it's just a bit of air coming out methinks. Then today...

    not too much bother to fit, much less hassle than a FMIC and cutting the bumper bar! For the passenger side you will need to cut the current lower hose in half and also drill some holes in the top of existing mounting bracket, for driver side you will have to cut away some of the mounting...

    S4 V8 - Misfiring On Bank 1

    Try swapping cam position sensors too so you can rule them out. If it’s an upper tensioner gone it may be possible to get to it with engine in like on the 3.2 v6 which share same upper tensioner sand are a common fail. Pig of a job though.
