thanks! I did but honestly this one lasted as long and I don't expect my sister will keep the car much longer so it wasn't a worth while investment...the difference in cost isn't massive but the plastic is good enough for 100k+ kms so it will outlive the car as is...
thanks for video In my case we are going to replace the chain set the pump is still fine. Is it wise to replace the entire pump with housing or just the pump itself? And is a INA (130$) pump a good choice or should pay 50$ more for Hepu?
The housing is all plastic... it's the only thing that breaks so if you're doing the job make sure you change the whole thing... can't really comment on the difference in quality but $50 doesn't seem much considering the amount of work to replace it
Hey! I noticed that your car's coolant looks distinctly orange (like mine) after you finished the job. I have a 2013 Tiguan and was expecting mine to be pink or purple. I read that orange is for GM vehicles and that you shouldn't mix different types. What do you think? I need to top up my coolant because the plastic pump is leaking.
hey the color of the coolant is slightly different depending on which manufacturer you use...I believe the pink I was looking for was no longer available...the Prestone I've been using is more on the violet scale than orange - maybe the color isn't coming out very well on the video. Make sure you're not mixing different types of coolant...
Thank you sir. Unfortunately, I stripped the Bolt that holds the belt & I’m really having trouble trying to remove it. I heard it’s reverse thread & I’m turning it that way but it’s stripped out now. Pain in the butt.
