My son's Pug 106 1.4D has a water leak, that appears to be coming from the water pump housing. It's now losing at least a couple of pints a day.
HBOL seems to describe the housing as being removable separately from the water pump itself, i.e. without removing the cambelt etc. Anyone any experience of this? Might a new O-ring cure it, or are they notorious for problems in this area? It looks a so-and-so to get at, so I'd like some idea of what problems we're likely to face before I dive in.
