Thank you I just learned that I have a bad water pump👍

[@BckFvrTV]

I often skip the commits, but I did learn a thing or two. The Heater of course would stop working inside the car - I hadn't thought about that. And yes, yesterday I started my old classic car and heard a new High pitch noise that was new.

[@towcars5550]

Was the high pitch noise could you hear it inside the car

[@bohlempire9537]

Excellent explanation! I have experienced 3 of the 4 symptoms on my 02 Honda civic ex after I noticed it was running hot/not holding coolant! Now I’m ready to confidently order a new water pump and replace it! Thanks!

Thank you for thi video i did notice on mine coolant leaking from it

[@connorroche7971]

Awesome. This video probably just helped me out and saved me on money and time

[@AlexPerez-nu1qz]

This will affect by not letting the engine start ? Because my truck had a long crank but won’t start n next day it started

[@zelowatch30]

I suggest periodically check to make sure the coolant is clean. If you drive with dirty coolant overtime the debris will get to the water pump and wear it out faster.

[@do7hemath937]

If you're reading this, its probably too late. Check the coolant level every 3-6 months. I didn't & had a burning smell & I couldn't figure out the cause until I lost all heat in my car. I filled up the reservoir with coolant/ water mix and my heat started working again, but I realized I had a water leak coming from my water pump. Now I need a new 1 and it's not cheap. If my coolant level never got that low, maybe I wouldn't have damaged the seals in the water pump causing the bad leak. Idk By the way, the needle on the temperature gauge never showed that the car was running hot. I hope this saves someone trouble and $.

[@travisprugh6347]

you should check all your fluids weekly. it takes 5 min. i can get a water pump for my truck or van for under $50. thats cheap.

[@markgarduno4597]

Chirping also can be a sign that a water pump is on the brink. Mine started doing this a few days ago, so I'm buying it online today and replacing it ASAP.

[@maryannmirro513]

Thank you for the information. I have a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee special edition. My friend told me the water pump is kind of loose but I still get heat. Is this a bad sign?

[@igoski1582]

I have always had a leak being the cause of a bad water pump. Easy to diagnose that. THIS time, I kept hearing a grinding or bad bearing from the front of the engine, but what and where is this coming from? I thought, "it can't be the water pump because I just replaced it 2 years ago". Then the serpentine belt began shredding in half. Replaced the belt, it did it again with a new belt. What is causing all of this? Replaced both idler and tensioner pullies. Did not help. I took the belt off and the radiator fan was loose and wobbling. There's the problem. The water blades were grinding on the housing inside the pump and tilting down the water pump pully to make the belt shred in half from being out of line with the other pullies. The problem started from; I bought a rebuilt water pump 2 years ago. My suggestion, ALWAYS buy a new water pump. I've learned it's worth it.

[@Alejandra-cv7rj]

I think I have the similar issue as you. The water pump doesn't leak as I installed it 6 months ago but I have squeaky noise still after my serpentine belt got torn up replace it and the tentionor but the noise was still there today I replaced the thermostat because the car was overheating and I checked everything before doing it only thing left is the water pump my uncle was against me checking it because of how new it is I really wish he had let me take it off I still have warranty on it but since we replaced the thermostat the problem is still there we'll I'll I hope this is it otherwise I'll be out of options and I'll get my second tan of this week.

[@igoski1582]

@@Alejandra-cv7rj My suggestion. What made me KNOW it was the water pump was, I took off the serpentine belt. Then with it off, I could move the fan by hand. It wobbled A LOT moving it with my hand. I knew then the water pump shaft was the problem and making the belt run off center.

[@billolsen5401]

How about when you accelerate and you don’t see coolant moving,only rising.

[@fabiangomezfranco5268]

What if I have really good heater in my car???

[@robertvanderbaan3722]

The weep hole and pump outer seal and bearing seal all are culprits to adding/leaking air into the system. Very common in older, 200k, vehicles. I really like the 1997-2001 toyota camry. It gives you plenty of warning for failure, and just do everything on the engine outer at 200k and you will reach 350 to 400.

[@jaminapo4654]

Hey man, I have a Camry from that Era. I might have the same problem with water pump,,as every time I start the vehicle, it releases thin white smoke. Could be coolant leaking, because usually cold starts are only mornings; but everytime the engine is off for more than 30 mins, it releases the white smoke.

[@elijahanthony3674]

I’ve been having an issue with dashboard thermostat just all the way up and back to normal in under a second. The engine isn’t really overheating but I’ve noticed a small coolant leak and just last night steam/vapor started coming from the vents when the defrost was turned on. I plan on getting the water pump replaced asap but any suggestions on what else could be causing this?

[@jaredodom9719]

Could be your thermostat sticking closed then opening up allowing coolant to cool off the engine

[@titoortiz5924]

So I have a 2016 Buick LaCrosse I have a coolant leak I can only see the coolant under the passenger side of the engine, before I found out my coolant was low my heat was taking like 10/15 minutes to warm up u think that’s just cause the coolant leak or the water pump but now that I topped off the coolant the heat works fine

[@spacebox4816]

What is the instrumental background song I hear an almost every video it’s🔥?

[@oxanalangley9131]

If water pump drips is that a bad pump or gasket? I had an overheat but not sure the original cause it was 9f outside. And the coolant was changed in May. No issues til cold. I was assuming not properly coolant dilution. But shops don't always say truth. Now if there is a bad gasket would that let air in the system so it can't properly circulate? Mine pressure the hoses with air I bleed it and then still no circulation but the pressure gradually builds again. The expansion tank will blow off the pressure. This is a 04 Discovery 4.6l V8. Just was interested in the water pump info if it can be still good even if gasket was bad.

[@easyautofix]

It could be one or the other. The only way to know is to remove the water pump and look at the condition of the water pump fins. If there is resistance when rotating by hand or some of the fins are corroded or broken then it's best to replace it. If it's leaking from the weep hole then the seals are defective and the pump needs replacement. Considering your vehicle is 19 years old I would assume the pump is bad.

[@ninoaviles100]

Real good info young man,but I do have question????Are you Chillz ? Chillz is a guy who shows paranormal and scary stuff over you tube as well you sound just like duke......lol 😂

[@emanolponce481]

What if my heat still works and I got no leaks and engine lights ? Could it be my thermostat that’s making my heat up?

[@estevanperezz]

yes, most likely, change it together with the waterpump because if the thermostat is failing, your water pump isnt too far away as well. plus theyre located near eachother. thank me later

[@Cierralewis5016]

When i was driving my car just started slowing down out of nowhere and i heard some loud whining noises after that and then the engine started overheating and then i cut it off imm my lights start flashing and i can't keep coolant in after that it leaks all out

[@easyautofix]

and thank you!

[@robertvanderbaan3722]

Additionally, is your engine leaking oil through the seals. Replace the pcv valve, seals, oil seal at cover and water pump. Once you have the cover off, ant for toyotas it's about 200k, also timing serp. And p/s belt. It will ensure you reach 300 to 400k. Do idler pulleys too. Once timed right it will run so sweet, and never pull it apart again.

[@adrianyes1213]

What if the warerpump is internal? 2011 ford taurus sho ecoboost

[@smerk429]

Hi thanks im a subscriber. Question please... 1995 Lexus LS 400 : My heater was not blowing hot air. Changed thermostat because car was also overheating and it was bad and stuck closed and old. Now the heater does blow hot air out but is there a chance that it only blows hot air out because the engine is warm providing the hot air, tricking me to think that the water pump works ? I ask because why was the heater not working when the old bad stuck closed thermostat was in place but now the heater works all of a sudden with the NEW thermostat in place ? Wouldnt the heater work no matter what if the water pump was good ? I also ask because the car is still overheating with the new thermostat in place and before with the bad stuck closed thermostat, the upper radiator hose was not getting hot meaning thermostat closed was not allowing hot coolant to reach the upper hose but now with the New thermostat in place, tje upper hose IS HOT because coolant is reaching it now passing thru the good thermostat. I also thought that the water pump circulates the hot coolant from the hot engine thru the radiator but CAN COOLANT CIRCULATE FROM THE HOT ENGINE THRU THE UPPER RADIATOR HOSE BY MEANS OF ENGINE ROTATION PRESSURE ALONE ? DOES ENGINE ROTATION EVEN CIRCULATE COOLANT TO BEGIN WITH ? Im asking because the coolant seems to circulate because the upper hose gets hot when engine warms up. CAN COOLANT CIRCULATE THRU THE UPPER RADIATOR HOSE WITH A BAD WATER PUMP ? I dont see leaks near the water pump, i dont hear noises near the pump and the Heater Does Blow HOT AIR. Im so confused smh. Thanks. Anybody knowledgeable please reply soon

I would stop driving my car if I was you can be multiple problems than just your water pump . You check your fluids ? Such as oil and coolant if it's overheating

[@kennyherrick8379]

[@kennyherrick8379]

@Cjesus Beltra it was the water pump. Somebody sent me to squeeze hoses and see it the will . If you can't then it's thermostat. Thanks though for reply

[@anthonyhelfert9852]

I've got a small leak coming around that area. But my engine hasn't over heated and the heater stays hot. No CEL. I'm thinking it's the thermostat housing that I replaced about a month ago is just faulty.

[@liarliar1408]

Noisy around the belt area that you can hear from the streets. Plus clanking noise. Then leaking i thought was trannie fluid leak as i added too much the previous week. Then the whole left side by the belt, alternator area all wet with mud looking juice on it. Then overheat to hot. I stopped and water was gushing out from all areas in the bottom. Added more water and still dripping down. Limp my way home and car stalled at the light. Then belt making squeaky noises then stopped. Then belt derailed so battery sensor goes up. Then steering wheel was hard to turn. The serpentine belt runs all to alternator and power steering but the water pump does not run even when the belt was running. The water pump was making it hard for the belt to turn thus why it flew off. 430k n never flush radiator coolant. Car was gifted. 2011 Camry. Will call junk yard to go take it from the streets. No need to put more money into this high mileage car. I need to buy another car this weekend with only $2000 down or my work life is done. $2000 is all i got right now. Wish me the best.

[@SRGJ1]

I hope you got it figured out . But what kind of clanking noises ? Mines doing this then now doing the same symptoms as seeen on the video .

[@liarliar1408]

@@SRGJ1 the noise coming from the belt area. It is loud on idle. Faulty water pump will make that noise before it goes out. I ended up buying a new water pump n a new belt n fixed the problem. Good thing I parked in a mall Parking lot which is not public street or cops going up tow it. My water pump is sitting high on my car so easy to change out. The hard part is to get the belt to fit. Had to loosen the torque to get it to fit. Thought they sold me an extra long belt. Drained the radiator fluid while I'm at it. Add fluids to fill, start engine n turned on the heater to get the car to heat up fast n slowly adding more radiator fluid as the water pump is pushing out all the air. Around half hour should be done. Back to driving again. Hope that helps someone out there.

[@liarliar1408]

@@SRGJ1 also, you can hold the water pump n try to shake it. If it is loose then the water pump is bad.

[@jlydon29]

Any idea why engine won't heat up to temp or circulate? Already replaced thermostat and ECT sensor. Fan never kicks on, and low side of radiator stays cool. In Arizona, so it's hot out and the heater core is hot, blowing very hot air. Could it be because I'm using water and not coolant? Edit - radiator was replaced. Was in a collision. System is self bleeding, no bleeder valve. 2019 Chevy Equinox 1.5 turbo. My next thought is water pump, but it's not leaking and I'm obviously not overheating.

[@gregoryblair9810]

Thermostat in wrong direction making coolant run all the time. Engine never getting hot but radiator always warm.

[@larrycourtney9117]

Always check and make sure your thermostat Works before you install it in the car. Put the thermostat in a pan of water and turn it on high and make sure it opens before you install it. It doesn't matter if it's new or not a lot of them do not open. A water pump will not make a car overheat unless the water is pouring out of the weep hole and the car is low on antifreeze. The bearing squealing does not stop the water pump from circulating the water unless it breaks the shaft or locks up then it will toss the belt. Make sure you don't have an air pocket. I just about bet money that your new thermostat is crap or air pocket these newer cars are notorious for air pockets. This guy on this video saying that the water pump will stop circulating the water no it will not. Unless the motor has no antifreeze from leaking from the weep hole or another leak. the pump locks up or snaps the shaft. And it will throw the belt immediately.

I drive a 2017 Audi Q7 I had my check engine light come on and off within like 2 hours time. This happened 2-3 weeks ago.. I scanned it right when it happened and it came up with a code for “super charger sensor” then disappeared… Nothing noticeably different while driving what’s so ever.. but a day after the code popped up and went away I start hearing a weird clanking/grinding like noise only when idling, As if one of my pulley went bad. I tell this mechanic that looked at it yesterday exactly what I just explained right.. So he looks at it and tells me that my supercharger was the cause of the noise, as well as the supercharger pulley tensioner.. Last night I have another guy look at it and without even taking it apart he looks, listens and tells me within 10 mins that it’s my water pump pulley that is bad. He’s 1000% sure not my supercharger. He said I would’ve had black smoke coming from my exhaust , loss of power along with some type excessive whining; in which none of this I experienced.. In your experiences and from the sound of this situation ; what are your opinion’s on this? Every answer and/opinion is greatly appreciated and will save me a few strands of hair that I have left on my head
