Hyundai i30 Water pump replacement

Why do Hyundai i30 water pumps need to be replaced?

The water pump on your Hyundai i30 is what controls the coolant flow through your engine and radiator.

Without it, the coolant would just sit and boil inside your engine, and cause it to overheat! It is a vital part of keeping your engine running and needs to be replaced as soon as an issue is found to keep your engine running at normal operating temperature.   

A water pump replacement starts at around $300 and can increase to $1000+.

Water pumps can be electric or mechanical belt-driven both can fail over time. When a water pump fails or the seals wear out the pump can leak coolant, compromising the cooling system in the vehicle. When coolant is lost it can lead to the Hyundai i30's engine overheating and cause permanent damage and failure.

Many water pumps are located in front of the engine and driven by the timing belt or drive belt. Depending on the vehicle it can take a lot of labour time to access the water pump. This is one of the reasons why mechanics suggest the water pump is replaced at the same time as the timing belt, as they are typically in the same location.

The last thing you want to do is replace a Hyundai i30 timing belt and then have a leak in the water pump soon after. It's best practice to have them both replaced at the same time to save on time and money.

Fantastic and reliable service from Autopart Replacements. As soon as I arrived they were on the job, ordering the parts before I even left, I was kept up to date at all times. A job well done. I recommend Autoparts. Thanks, Perry, awesome job. 5 stars from me.

Was told one price and agreed to it, then was told I had to pay triple the quoted price. Communication was horrible and when questioned was met with a poor response.

The issue with the vehicle wasn't as expected. The technician let me know he could make an adjustment and the vehicle would be fine. Only charged call-out fee and 30mins labour saving me money.
