How To Replace a Water Pump and Save $783
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 май 2024
- Water pump replacement DIY. Learn how to replace a water pump at home using common hand tools. I was able to easily replace this water pump in under an hour and saved $783.
Replacing the water pump on many cars is not difficult and this is a perfect example of an easy to replace water pump. You could do this entire job without any special tools and I spent under $60 in parts which is unbelievable after getting the $843 quote from the Jaguar dealership. I will also do a video on a more difficult water pump so you can see what is involved in that as well.
Thanks PEAK for the coolant product placement in this video!

The Dream Car video is coming but because it is a very special video for me, I want to make sure it is amazing, so it is taking a little longer than I thought to film and edit (you will see why when it comes out). In the meantime, I filmed and edited this water pump video to bridge the gap. I actually edited this video during my 2 week long road trip where I had meet-ups for you guys in Cincinnati, Indy, and Chicago! As always thank you for the support and stay tuneeeeeed!
P.S. Here is a link to the first every DIY video I did on my channel to help people: ruclips.net/video/vTl6UNMKjLc/видео.html

Hi Chris 👋
I hope you have a good day and take your time with your family and friends
I like how he says water, wohter
Funny thing is he exposed his face by accident in that one video of super cleaning his windshield. But that was five years ago so he could look different now And it also goes to show how good cleaning the windshield works 😂

WOW! Jaguar is waaaaay more convenient then some of the Hondas and Ford's I have worked on. That is the most accessible water pump I have ever seen. No shroud fan and clutch removal, no axle removal!
Where has this guy been all my life! Why am I just finding these videos??I feel dumb now! I've junked & sold off good vehicles because I was told by a mechanic that the repairs needed wld cost more than what the vehicle is worth...& the repairs needed were not large at all. Never again! I see that I'm late but Thanks, Chris Fix for all the great videos!
Glad the videos are helpful!
Don’t feel dumb! I’m 4 months behind you! 😂 I hope to this one day and save money this way! We can do it! Chris is our guide! Just got my 1st car at age 45! Wish me luck!

How many people don’t need their water pump changed but like watching ChrisFix anyway? ✋🏽
Now I wait for mine to go out so I can change it using what I learned in his video
Heck, I don't even have a car and I enjoy watching these.
yeah
I've probably utilized 5% of the videos he's made with my own vehicles. Watching the rest and every other repair videos just ads a slight amount of understanding of how to fix and diagnose stuff
That. Would be me.
I'm not a car guy at all, but there is something so entertaining about watching him do this stuff that has always seemed like magic to me. And he's very informative in these tutorials, so hopefully someday I'll actually start doing things myself. He's the best thing on RUclips.
I'm glad you still like the videos!
Excellent video, you have a great down to earth "keep it simple" mentality. I did the pump in my wife's 2005 Yukon. The shop wanted $750 to do it. For $262 total in parts, including new thermostat, upper radiator hose and serp belt, and a few hours (my first time, I wanted to take my time and do it right) it was worth the $490 savings. It's run like a champ since, she's made several long distance trips with it and not a drop of leakage.
How do you do it

I don’t even change my own oil but after binge watching ChrisFix, I find myself trying to talk my wife into letting me buy a junker to restore🤣
I say it's a good idea :p
Same bro. I’ve literally never even changed my own oil and last night I put an ad online looking to buy a fixer to work on. Currently eyeing an 09 dodge challenger that needs a new head gasket.
Don't do it. Nagging will ensue after the car has been laying around in pieces for a couple months
@Robert Powell try talking your mother into believing you can fix a junker.
Why do you have to be “let” to do it? Just do it.

I just woke up. Made me some eggs toast n coffee and sat down to watch this video. Not a bad start for my day either haha
Haha great timing gave into my mind a picture of spark timing and other timing stuff :D
I know nothing of cars. Saw my engine overheating, looked at coolant coming out; guessed it was the water pump based off its looks and google images of them looking similar... using this as a guide, I changed it and it worked!! No more coolant leaks, no more over heating!
Thank you so much, ChrisFix!
Take his word about the coolant being scolding hot
My father burned himself to the 2nd degree because he didnt wait for the car to completely cool before working on something in engine bay, accidentaly broke a coolant line and it dumped all over his feet, this is very dangerous, save yourself the trip to the hospital and work on a cool engine
Sorry to hear about what happened to your father, that's why safety when working on cars is very important!
@@chrisfix he was very lucky to get out of this with very little complications, espially for a 2nd degree burn, I dont want anybody else to live the same thing
Thank you for sharing.
As a former Jaguar owner I've always found that the best way to fix a Jag is to never own one.
As a former tow truck driver, I second this comment.
As a proud Brit I have to say...
...this is absolutely true. lol.
As a mischievous Mexican I also agree with this comment.
As a no one I agree as well
as a ford owner, i also agree
A little trick I've used in my almost 30 years as a professional factory trained technician is while it's sitting there with your spill proof funnel full, grab the rad hoses and squeeze them quite a few times so the coolant pulsates in the system and it'll almost 100% bleed your system before you've even started your vehicle.. It's so simple and I've never encountered a vehicle this didn't work on.
The fact this is available to use for free is nuts!!! You’ve taught me a lot man thanks!
It's free and I hope it stays free. You do have the option to buy some of his merch to support him financially to keep offering free content if you wish.
Definitely my favorite track on the album Not Available by The Residents, truly a chefs kiss
Chris: Don't let your pets near coolant
Cooper: Oh look, coolant!
Jaguar = endless money pit, unless you're Chris Fix's dad.
That is a great car if you want to make repair videos!
I understand that shops need to make money doing repairs but 800$ to replace a 45$ part and add more coolant seems ridiculous. Thank you for putting the time and effort into explaining every step and why that step is important and going out of your way to give tips and tricks. I’m sure I speak for all of us when I say we appreciate it
Jag as a daily driver....money PIT! Its crazy watching the Old jeep changing water pump video from 2013 and now days. Chris is so much more AMPED
I'm more excited to film now than old school ChrisFix :p and It's actually had 100k relatively trouble free miles (couple of small fixes but they were either free or like $5 to fix)

Watching these videos makes me realize how much money I’ve wasted paying people to fix my car 🤦♂️
Right? I paid some guy $240 just to replace the rear brake cylinder and the part was only around $25. 🤦🏻♂️
@@jusglo9092 bruh
You do know it varies for engine type and vechile
Ehh not really a waste. Just like my car, it’s a 2016 vw gti and it needs a new water pump, which I could easily do myself if it weren’t located deep beneath the intake manifold which has to be takin out to get to the water pump. Unless Chris makes a video on how to tear apart half of the engine, I won’t be doing this one myself.

Thank you Christ....I will be replacing my water pump and knew nothing about it until I saw your video. You are the best!!!!!!!
I just love the positivite that ChrisFix brings to youtube
Bartender: what can I get you ?
Chris: double shot of soapy wooder on the rocks
hahahah good 1 lol
"I'd like the ChrisFix please..."
"I don't know that drink, but I'm happy to make it. What's in it?"
"Well, first you put on your eye protection and blue gloves... All you're going to need is a Highballglass, a shaker, some common ice, a few fluids and a straw! It's_that simple!_ You should always check your recipe book to make sure you know how to make the drink, but this one is very simple, so let's get started!
First, you want a double of Soapy Wooder, a dash of Medium Strength Threadlocker, and a half ounce of Blinker Fluid, your gonna want to shake it at 20 FtLbs of torque and make sure you get it nice and shaken up. You go to the dishwasher and find a clean cup... out with the old, in with the new. You pour the drink over rocks in a highball glass and top it with a gasket garnish.
That's it! Your done!
You just made the ChrisFix drink and saved a ton of money on alcohol and it looks great!
That has to be the easiest water pump replacement I've seen.
danteelite hilarious lol
You suck sucker

You make such a positive difference in each of our lives, and we see your effort and we appreciate it ❤
I had to stop my hand from trying to reach through my phone to try and pet your dog. lol
Also, I had a drain plug shear off and didn't have an OEM radiator. So I put steel stick in the drain plug to seal it. It stopped the leak, but my engine was still overheating. I did some trouble shooting and some googling. I narrowed it down to either my thermostat or my water pump. After watching your video on the thermostat, I pulled my thermostat and it wasn't bad, in fact it was almost new. (About 1 1/2 years old) So then I watched this video. I'm currently replacing my water pump.
I go to your channel for all of my car maintenance questions. A mechanic will tell you is a 3 hour job and needs a bunch of specialty tools. (fan clutch) In reality Joe Smoe (me) can do it with basic tools in 30-40 minutes. Your tutorials are the best. Keep it up.

After starting the engine, I usually turn the heater on high to circulate the coolant through the heater core.
That only helps if your car uses an old-fashioned heater valve system, where coolant is only diverted through the heater core when you turn the heater on.
Many cars these days are designed so that the coolant is always flowing through the heater core. When you turn the heater on, you're not changing the coolant flow, you're just opening an air door that allows the hot air from the core to enter the cabin.
Every car I've owned since 1992 has used the more modern system.
my 96 camry still uses the heater valve system, you can see the cable that connects the heater dial to a valve on the coolant hose in the engine bay, the valve is located right before the firewall. Turning it all the way to cold fully shuts off the heater core from the cooling system, you can also hear a clunk which I'm guessing is an air door as well. Turning the dial just one click away from the lowest setting opens the valve very slightly however.
@@dunebasher1971 Can't hurt to do it either way, if one's not sure! :)
@@dunebasher1971 the "air door" system is the way it should always be imo.
I have a '97 camry that doesnt seem to have this system. Fan works on all power settings perfectly fine. But the core is not providing the necessary heat for faster airflows.
@@dunebasher1971 agreed. I have older card/ trucks so that s necessary.
Probably the easiest water pump change ive seen on a car! Most cars are a good 6-8 hour job with timing belt removal and everything.

Jaguar? Try Ford. The Jaguar X-Type is basically a rebadged Ford Mondeo / Ford Taurus.

Hey Chris! I never comment on videos but I'm making an exception here to say thanks for the awesome high quality videos. You deserve all the respect and recognition in the world. Keep it up!
Thanks a lot man!
Usually dealerships make sound a fairly simple job very complicated so they can charge you more. Good thing we have ChrisFix! DIY FTW! (y)
Its just overheads man. More people in the building, specialized tools, paying a cut to the brand. It's also multiple departments instead of just a few guys and some hoists in a shed.

@@panzerveps Good point.
Just stumbled across this video again after watching it for the first time a little over a year ago trying to figure out how to replace my water pump. First engine related work I ever did and was terrifying. This car is the complete opposite upside down engine compared to my impala, but your video was the most helpful and informative and finally gave me the push to get it done. Took me a little over 4 hours to do (Twice), but I got it done!!! and saved at least $600. I couldn't believe what the shops were telling me lol. I had to take it all apart again because I forgot to tighten the pulley bolts after fighting the python rope, but that's a whole different conversation.

Great video Chris, lots of good tips. The only thing I would add while adding coolant and letting the bubbles run out is to squeeze the coolant hoses to help bubble air out. This is recommended in most manuals that I have read.

Super helpful! Now I know what caused my windshield to sometimes get foggy and the annoying glaring street lights. Time to fix mine. Thanks Chris.
I love all your videos @chrisfix! You're a true proffesional and you can tell you love what you do. Thanks for all the great help in your videos. I have done alot of work on many different cars watching your stuff and I as well enjoy working on cars so that helps too.
I'm very surprised at how accessible that water pump is! Some pumps that are driven by the timing belt can be a huge amount of work.. great video as always!
I had just finished replacing my water pump right before ChrisFix uploaded this 😂
Lmao same thing with my dad's chevy
Great tip on putting old bolts in new pump to remember location of bolts
I know I've watched most of all your videos but I don't care. I love going back and watching them again because they are so satisfying, calm, and relaxing. You my good man are an amazing person!
