| Yes.
Get a piece of rubber tube, place it on top of the water pump and put it to your ear.
If it's shagged you'll hear it, place the tube on other things like pas pump or alternator.
It could also be the tensioner pulley, these are common failures.
Be carefull with the tube don't get it caught it'll whip you hard !
It's an old trick for locating the source of noise but it works well.
Any probs call me on 07791 001385 I'm happy to talk you through it. | |

| New pump and housing about £35.
I'm surprised it's not leaking ! | |

I bet you wll need a back too as they normally snap the bolts in the housing, if you do I have about three of them, the £30 included a backing too and a thermotwat.
I also have an account.
