Removal and installation of water pump used on 1.5L, 1.8L, 1.6L, 2.0L, 2.4L, 3.0L and 3.5L engines To remove and install water pump, first disconnect the negative battery cable and drain the cooling system, but ensure that safety measures are observed to avoid burns as well as to ensure that pets do not access the coolant. Take out required parts like the engine undercover, engine drive belts, and the different brackets, taking note of the location of the bolts to be reassembled. To install, clean gasket surfaces, install new O-rings and gaskets as indicated, and torque bolts to recommended levels. Install all parts in reverse order, fill up the cooling system with coolant, and test to ensure no leaks after engine is turned on, and it reaches operational temperature. Lastly, verify the level of coolant after the car has cooled down.
