Water Pump
Responsible for pushing coolant through the engine, the original water pumps can fail in a number of ways. This high-quality replacement water pump comes with a metal impeller and a new sealing o-ring.
Description
A by-product of power is heat, so a high-performance motor needs reliable cooling. Often, the first sign of a failing water pump is an overheating engine that's already caused costly damage to the head gasket. We recommend replacement as part of good preventative maintenance for every E46 M3. Made by HEPU to exacting standards, this water pump comes complete with gasket and o-ring.
