dellert 0 Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Got a nasty little red light in the dash today. Water level low, checked, and found a little puddle below the alternator pulley area, the drip was coming from above, could not exactly see where, but it was dripping into the plastic cowling and dripping onto the floor. Would I be right in thinking that the Water pump is the one right at the back at the bottom? Is this the most likely source? Also, whilst checking for leaks found a hose that is not leaking but is looking pretty crappy. Any ideas on price for a; Aux water pump to reservoir to Thermostat housing hose, part no 1HO 121 063 B.Thank you! Link to post Share on other sites

antera309 3 Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 If the puddle is underneath the belt area, the most probable source is the water pump - these are designed to leak water when they get worn out or broken internally. I guess this is to force the owner to replace it before overheating etc. starts to happen.The water pump pulley is the non-ribbed one just above the crank pulley. Link to post Share on other sites
