It's not a job I look forward to. But I guess it depends how you go about it. Just make sure you bleed the system afterwards to get rid of those annoying air locks.
Have fun :ok

This thread made me go out and check mine. It wobbles slightly so what I thought was a slipping belt is the pump. Getting it and a cv joint done on Saturday. Glad I caught it before it started pissing water

I swapped out my pump 2 years ago, got it from brickwerks and it's still going strong.

I only checked ours because of the grinding sound. When we first got the van it went and it spewed coolant everywhere. I'll got it from brickwerks I figured they would be the best bet as they usually are

On the T6 the recommendation is to change the water pump every 4 years. :shock: I thought that once in 25 - 30 years was enough.
