Leaking coolant

[Simply si]

Hi guys, I noticed a puddle of water under my mav tonight and it is luminous green. I turned the engine on and watched to see where it was coming from. It's running down near the belts, am I right in assuming that it needs a new water pump? Cheers, si

Before I go ahead with this, from what I've described, does it sound like the water pump?

Many thanks. I'll book it in at a garage as I have no experience doing water pumps on these. Cheers, si

when the water pump went on my V6 MX-6, it simply pissed water out so i'd say yes, its your pump, and with that mileage its a fair bet.

Do any belts need to come off or can I just unbolt it and back on again. And ps, many thanks to you all for your help.
