yeah i never knew about changing the water pump till after i had the cambelt changed, i think i'll get the new matrix and get it fitted along with the service, if it is the water pump, least i have a new matrix ready for when the winter comes i suppose, and if it is the matrix then ive saved some money lol (for the time being lol)  :wink:

Yep sorry to say it but that is exactly what happened to me, about a couple of weeks after having the cambelt done the water pump impeller went. :rolleyes:

I would put money on it thats what it is.
