𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐤: The water pump gaskets can be damaged or worn out over time. In this case, coolant may leak out and drip under the vehicle.

 

𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠: The main purpose of a water pump is to run coolant through an engine to cool it down. If the water pump cannot do this, the engine may overheat. Heat problems can cause problems such as cracked cylinder heads, burnt pistons, and damaged head gaskets.

 

𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡 𝐏𝐢𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝, 𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐍𝐨𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐬: This is because a weakened pulley can create a whirring or howling sound at a fairly high pitch when pulled by the pump. This is usually caused by improper pulley placement or bearing problems inside the pump. Unfortunately, once the bearings in the pump wear out, you will need to look for a water pump replacement.

 

𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐮𝐦𝐩 𝐑𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧: In many cases, contaminated coolant can cause corrosion of the impeller. This will cause the pump to be ineffective in moving the coolant and lead to added damage to all of the cooling system components and may completely damage the vehicle’s engine.

 

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐝: If you notice steam coming from the front of the engine when driving or stopping, this is an instant sign of the engine overheating, you should move to a safe place and contact a mechanic as soon as possible. Never drive a car with an overheated engine.

 

𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐫 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐬𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐦 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐫𝐲 𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐮𝐦𝐩: You can see the holes in the water pump due to the formation of bubbles at the coolant inlet of the pump. The pressure increases and the bubbles implode and cause harm. Regardless of the condition of your vehicle, your water pump will become obsolete. And over time, the outer seals begin to break and deteriorate. If car owners even check the dry side of the water pump, there could be holes. And this is one of the signs of a bad water pump. For this reason, drivers should take their car to a mechanic as quickly as possible.
