I should think your mechanic is in error on this one. Perhaps you should loosen the belt a bit after he does the installation and buy the waterpump yourself. regards gary Subject: water pump replacement http://busdepot.com/view.jsp?model=43&category=36&group=-1&prodgroup=-1 http://oem.thepartsbin.com/parts/thepartsbin/wizard.jsp?year=1987&make=VW&model=VAN--003&category=All&part=Water+Pump Hello-

Just told by my mechanic that my water pump is bad. He says the VW originals are hard to find and very expensive since they are so rare, and none of the aftermarket pumps have very good quality. He suggests a VW remanufacture but hasn't gotten back to me on price. I'd love any opinions or info so I can have a more informed discussion with him before making a decision.

Its a 2.1l 1987 westy

For what its worth, I do see that "Graf" pumps are about $60.

thanks
