Water Pump

Postby doug » Sun May 30, 2010 1:32 am

Hi

I have a 2003 XK8 and was wondering if someone could tell me when Jaguar started fitting the redesigned/uprated water pump as standard.

It appears from the parts list that the part number remained the same through to 2005.

Thanks

Doug

Hi Doug

The original (& 1st attempt to get it right) is a single casting with 5 bolts fixing to the engine.

The latest pump is a 2 part casting with extra bolts to hold the 2 parts together.

As far as I'm aware no 4.0 engine had the latest pump fitted in the factory but all 4.2 engines did.

New pumps from Jaguar are about £60.00 (including latest gasket)

Regards

Allan
