Coolant Leak.Where to buy a pump?

[4wheel]

I seem to have coolant dripping out of the centre of the engine protection cover.From what I have read on the forum I would guess it is the waterpump.I still have to have a good look when I take the cover off but would welcome advice from experienced members on where best to buy a new pump.I suppose Milners is a good starting point but maybe you guys have better suggestions.Bit dissapointed as although an X reg only done 37000 miles.

might be the thermostat housing , mine used to drip from there :nenau

ebay, simple place for water pump, but as Briggie said, look at the thermostat housing as well.

Leak,

Ok thanks,will do that asap.

Could be a hose (jubilee type) clip just needs tightening.

Yes...check thermostat housing and heater pipe clips where they join the engine as I have had leaks at both points

Leak

Thanks everyone.Checked all the suggested points but dry as a bone.Must be the pump.Only leaks a few sizeable drops at the moment so will keep an eye on it.Not wet underneath etc.Gave it a pressure test last night and that seems fine.My petrol Terrano blew a hose but luckily it was whilst stationary so caugt it in time.Bit paranoid now about water leaks. Will check ebay and Milners for a pump.
