In my original
thread, I was most concerned with how many miles one could log prior to changing the water pump. What it didn't answer however was when your water pump actually failed so I'm creating a new poll and hopefully a Moderator will make this a 'sticky'
This is for N52 owners ONLY. Please vote yes IF and ONLY IF YOUR PUMP ACTUALLY FAILED. If you replaced it for precautionary (preventive maintenance) purposes, do NOT VOTE at ALL. This will skew the data. However do feel free to post details in a written response below.
If you did replace your water pump (preventive or because of failure), please also provide the following info:
a. year / model / transmission
b. did it actually fail or was this preventive maintenance?
c. how much did the repair cost (and indicate labor vs parts)?
d. was it replaced at indy or dealer?
e. was there any other damage caused as a result?
f. do you track your vehicle? (DO NOT reply if you participate in canyon carving, street racing, etc.). strictly referring to auto-x, road course, drift and drag.
