water

Got my LCR225 booked in for a cambelt and water pump change this weekend, although it's less than the recommended 60k miles (44k) it is over the recommended four years old. At least, I can't see anything in the service logbook that says it's been changed and I don't want to risk it breaking...

Noticed other day that when I turned the engine off, the water pump was working away like usual. It was changed dure the cambelt change....... Could it be an issue related to the sensors that I apparently need to change

Hi, Recently I have noticed a small oil leak coming from the small hole in the EGR valve. Also noticed that the leak where the boost pipe (driver side) connects to the intercooler is much bigger i.e. not a dump oil patch but a proper leak (I mean not dripping out constantly but over a week...

i think(know i no) my washer pipe has come off as the lights are not working on the passenger side,opened the light cover and its soaked,question is how do i remove the inside interior from the boot lid,i have removed 2 screws from the handles u use to close the boot ,but i cant see anything...

Just been quoted £450 for replacement and fitting of the water pump and cambelt on my LCR by my local JCT600 Seat dealership. If I want a oil & filter change too they want £100 on top! :wtf: Just checked on e-bay and it seems that cambelt kits are £120ish and water pumps anything from...

Had a quick search but thought I'd ask for fresh advice. Had a spirited run down the by-pass earlier and my water temp shot up to 120 degrees, the warning light lit up and the alarm sounded. Eased off and the temp went straight back to 90 degrees. Drove through town stopping at traffic lights...

ive had it for 3 weeks now and ive had to top the coolant up 3 times in the past 2 weeks. i cant see any signs of a leak anywhere, the rdiator is nice and clean (nothing to suggest a leak eg rust) all the pipes are fine. theres no visible leaks from coreplugs (the ones i can see without taking...

Is it possible to tell if the water pump has been change just from appearence? My golf (86k miles) appears to have had a can belt change but no record of whater pump change so was wondering if you could tell from appearence once its fitted cos 1 i dont want it going but 2 i cant afford...

hi all. i noticed yesterday that i have a leak. its in the rear passanger footwell. now i have checked the door seals and they are fine, the leak seem to be in the very corner next to the back side of the hand brake.there is no water near any doors. i personallly think its coming from under the...

Hi, Our 2002 Leon CupraR (35000mi) has just hit 120deg on the way home from the shops (as I overtook a car) I let off and cruised into our village which was 1/2mi or so away and as I pulled into the house the water temp had returned to 90deg. I'm pretty sure it needs the waterpump changed...

Hi guys, i have a slight problem, after the snow i have been having a problem with water getting in my passenger footwell and the footwell in the passenger seat behind it. I have checked the seals and sunroof but these dont seem to be the problem. Im not sure whether i bottomed it out on the...

God only knows how this has happened, but I appear to have what I can only believe to be water staining on my drivers seat :(. Doesn't smell of anything else (thank god!) so I figure I might have left the window open a touch by accident, or some snow melted on it, or something. anyway...

Hi! I got a Toledo 1.8 20v Petrol with 123k miles on board. I've replaced t. belt 10 k miles ago ;) but din't know that I should also change whater pump. how critical is that? how ofteh w.p should be changed.

Been quoted 500 inc vat for the above from main dealer, ringing around loads of independents the prices vary quite a bit which worries me as i don't think they know what they are doing, i know its 60k for the cam belt but im past 4 years so want it out of the way. Arnold Clark want 210 for...

Hi there, I have got a problem with the Vario, seems to be lossing water and it looks like it might be the header tank, any body got an idea of the the part number and what I should be looking to pay for a new one from the stealers? many thanks.

NOT!!! I seemed to have developed a nasty one above my accelerator pedal! Checked under the scuttle panel and everything looks solid and free of leaves, dirt etc. One think I did notice is that the seal around the loom housing felt a bit wet. Is this a common place for a leak? Oddly...

A few times recently when it has been a little cold I have started the car and the red warning light below the water temperature gauge has flashed red and a siren like noise gone off! When I turn off the engine and restart, everything is fine. I asked the dealers who said this can happen in...
