Thanks drewster, I've Googled aswell and looked a e-bay being doing that off and on for the last two days so seen the links as you see just prices and suppliers not manufactures why the price difference as they are all similar, which one has the better one? lr or rimmers don't tell you. It would Nice to know if Britpart was QH or even what ever.
Mid range on the price it has to be QH then, even Allmakes do two, a cheepy and also a QH pump

Ok placed an order for a Allmakes OM pump and fitting it at the weekend hopefully.
I'll see what I can save some of the OAT coolent when draining as it is only a year old and will have to get some sort of Loctite thread lock/sealer for the threads of the three bolts that go through into the block and watergalleries by the look of it, more expence, glad I didn't need any special spanners to do the job, sockets and torque wrenches I have.

Cheers fett, I didn't want to do the job again for a few years a least, i've read on the forums of pumps squeeling or leaking and only a few months old.
I remember the problems in the old days when water pumps came either as recon or new from a main dealer and I fitted recon but it leaked a week later, and even the replacement leaked so ended up with a new pump anyway.
Replacing a pump on a disco must be one of the easyest "jobs" going

Job done, easy but very time consuming but I wasn't in a rush, took me well over an hour just to remove the old gasket luckly I didn't have any broken bolts although the shaft of the three bolts that go into the block had surface rust, they were re-used but with a dab of copperslip on the shafts and thread lock/seal on the threads.
Pics show old and new pump, the inside of the old pump very clean for 14 years old and that gasket that I removed carefully with a blade first then with a bit of soft alloy strip as a scraper plus lots of thinners, shame the gasket didn't stay with the pump.
