TD5 water pump - is it shot?
I've just crawled under the Landy to change the oil and noticed a coolant leak...

I think this is the steering pump bracket, is it time for a new water pump?

Thanks Sad

Easy enough. Get the gaskets and 'O' ring for the centrifugal filter housing as it needs to come off.

I've seen it done another way, remove PS pump from housing, four bolts to remove the entire bracket assembly from the lump and then swap the pump on the bench. There is an O ring that'll need swapping but it allows you to torque the pump bolts up correctly. I'll post the O ring part number when I get on the PC.

Each to their own but I find that way an absolute pain in the backside. You'll do it easily in an hour or so by removing the centrifugal filter.
