- This is part 2 of 2, changing the water coolant pump on our 2010/2011 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 twinport A12XER engine.
Part two - Removing the faulty pump and seeing the damage, then preparing the replacement with gasket and fitting it back on the car. Refilling the coolant, getting it up to temperature and then testing it all out using my iCarsoft diagnostic tool.
I also replace the thermostat.
Parts used:
Water pump - Water Pump FOR VAUXHALL CORSA 69bhp D 1.2 10 14 S07 A 12 XEL Petrol
Thermostat - VAUXHALL ADAM/ CORSA D /E 1.2 /1.4 THERMOSTAT HOUSING 55593033 2006 ONWARDS

Another great video, thanks
Great tutorial video. Your brand new pump came with two rubber seal rings, 4:45 the circular one goes to the thermostat, what about the other circular sea with a protruding tip, where does that seal go to ?
Hi, thanks for watching. Aactually the one with the protruding tip goes to the thermostat as it has a notch for it (Mine was new so didn't need replacing). The other circular seal I'm unsure. As these are 'generic' parts I'd assumed not needed for this engine, or at least I couldn't find anywhere else that needed a rubber seal. Curious to know if you find out so do post back if you know! Thanks
Please I need help, I had same Opel Corsa D 1,'2 petrol A12XER. I change waterpump, thermostat and cooling liquid but temperature while I drive are 105-110 c . is this normal operating temperature or not?
Hi there. Yes 102-110 sounds about normal. The thermostat opens around 103oC (See here www.autodoc.co.uk/car-parts/thermostat-10195/vauxhall/corsa/corsa-mk-iii-d-l-8/33729-1-4#:~:text=Opening%20Temperature%20%5B%C2%B0C%5D%3A,Housing%20Type%3A%20with%20housing)
So that operating temperature sounds normal and similar to mine if it's been ran hot/running a while.
@@junkendriven Thank's man. I thougt that it is a bit too hot but car run's fine ignition is Ok and everything else. When i drive after a while temperature comes to 110 c then drop down to 104-105c. and no matter how log drive is temperaure is in that scale 104-110 c
nanometers😕 there is a bleed screw above the rad
Oops, newton metres. Thank you! Also yes, bleed screw I've used but have often found it wasn't needed.
Hi there, what’s temperature the radiator fan turn on?
Hi, it's quite high on the petrol 1.2 corsa. 110oC from memory is when the radiator fan comes on so it's a narrow margin between thermostat fully open and fan on.
hi, ive never heard my fan kick in is there a way of testing it. changing water pump tomorrow. obvious leak from behind top pulley. kind regards
marc
Good luck mate, if you have working air con you can turn that on as it'll force the electric cooling fan on. If you have a decent scantool you can also switch fans on from there
@@marcsaunders8130you can test it by disconnecting sensor by the thermostat
thats broken because the car has been to hot, probably due to the leak
Sorry, but you have little understanding of how this pump works, you shouldn't be advising others owners.
