Water pump recommendation?
« on: 08 April 2012, 20:36:09 »
Just wondering, if I end up changing this myself, is there a brand or option favoured amongst those in the know?
Vx is around £70 on TC I think. 

TIA  :y

Just wondering why some are advertised as for specifically 2.5, 3.2. Thats the bay though, but as some won't post to NI, and others charge extorionate rates, I'll be getting it elsewhere anyway!

Just a note from the cambelt DVD.... there are two waterpumps... one is marked ''01'' I think and the other I can't remember. Mark specifically says though that they're not interchangable so make sure you get the correct one :)
