I have to say 2 things before o go.

1)- Before I change my defective and noisy water pump ( http://www3.sympatico.ca/huotx/water_pump.htm ), she was still "cooling" my engine just fine. She was noisy but still working well. So can a pump be that bad, that is the question.............. Can she produce lest flow to the point of being a bad aftermarket pump. I don't think so, is the mating surface good!!!!!!!!!!! That is the real question. A used pump is another story!!!

2)->>> I can confidently say that aftermarket water pumps don't even come close to the real deal for trouble free service<<<

For now I don't agree about performance as my aftermarket Hepu ( http://www.hepu.de/ ) pump is working just fine for now, will she last as long as the OEM pump, I don't know!!!!!!!! But she was half the price and looking better than the original one.

Just some pump talk!!!!!

Regards, Ben
