About this job
The water pump moves coolant around the engine. When its seal or bearing fails you may see leaks or the temperature gauge climbing. On belt-driven pumps it's often worth doing the timing belt at the same time.
Signs you might need it
- Coolant leaking from the front of the engine
- Overheating
- Whining from the engine bay
What's included
- Replacement water pump
- Gasket or seal
- Coolant refill and bleed
- Leak check
Plus travel, disposal of old parts and a 12-month guarantee.

Questions about water pump replacement
How long does water pump replacement take?
Usually 2–3 hours. Your mechanic will tell you if your car needs longer.
Can it be done at my home?
In most cases, yes. Mobile mechanics need a safe, level place to park, such as a driveway or quiet street. If your job needs a workshop we'll let you know before you pay anything.
Is the price fixed?
Yes. The price on your quote is what you pay. If the mechanic finds something else, they'll explain it and give you a separate price – nothing extra is done without your OK.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes – parts and labour are covered for 12 months. See our guarantee page for the details.
