    water pump freelander 1 2005 TD4

    No need to go under the car too see the belt. It can be seen when you open the bonnet and there is a manufacturing date on it :eek:. Only the thermostat housing is in plastic. The pump has aluminium housing.

    Now does it starts ? When was the last time, it has started ? It's a very basic common rail diesel injection engine, how it's possible a garage can't get it working. Does the car doesn't want to start before of after hp pump replacement ?
