A water pump moves coolant through the engine so heat is carried away from the parts that make it. If it fails, the engine can overheat. Ring 07961 404768 with your registration and we will check which pump fits your car.
What a water pump does
The water pump is the part that keeps coolant moving. It pushes coolant from the engine to the radiator, where heat is given off, and back again — a loop that runs for as long as the engine is on. Without it, the coolant sits still and the engine heats up fast.
On many engines the water pump is driven by the timing belt, which is why the two are usually looked at together when the belt is due. A pump that is failing can leak, make a noise, or stop moving coolant properly — and any of those can make the temperature gauge climb.
How to find the right water pump
Water pumps are matched to the engine, and to whether they are driven by the timing belt. Two cars with the same model name can take different pumps if their engines differ, so the year and engine matter as much as the model. Your registration number is the quickest check for your water pump. Or tell us the make, model, year and engine. The number on the old water pump helps too, if you can read it.
If your engine is running hot, the pump is one of the parts that can be the cause — but so is the coolant level, the thermostat and the radiator. Tell us the symptom when you ring and we will point you at the water pump.

Yes. A pump that stops moving coolant properly can make the engine overheat. Overheating can also point at the coolant level, the thermostat or the radiator, so describe what is happening when you call and we will point you at the water pump.
On many engines it is, which is why the pump is often looked at when the timing belt is due. Whether your car is one of them depends on its engine — call 07961 404768 with your registration and we will check.
