Water pump GRAF or Pierburg

PIERBURG makes a good water pump...

Screw NAPA. Get a Meyle or Graf water pump, they meet and exceed OE standards.

Do you still have the original water pump? Those has plastic impellers that fail. Replace it with a metal impeller pump (Graf and Hepu are ideal).

I have a GRAF metal impeller water pump. so far so goof with it, i like it.

Get a new WP with metal impeller, Hepu, Graf.

Just to let everyone know, it did indeed turn out to be a defective O-Ring on the Graf water pump I installed a couple of months ago.

all graf water pumps with metal impellers are tested and balanced before packaged so why would there be any reason not to buy them ?

I purchase the all aluminum pump made by Graf from FCP euro, they have a lifetime warranty, free shipping and good prices. I removed the manifold to get to the water pump. I had a problem with the cheap thermostat that came with it. It caused my car to run hot.

My local aftermarket dealer stopped selling Graf water pumps after two bearing failures in the last month (one failure destroyed the camshaft timing belt).

My OEM plastic one broke and so did the metal-impeller Graf I replaced it with. They Graf seized up and leaked whereas the OEM plastic one just leaked.
