Gates quality at competitive prices.

I bought these for my dad's Buick Rendezvous and they work great. Just remember to align the arrow on the pump with the position on the motor when replacing it. There is a YouTube video on how to replace the water pump on this car. So if you get stuck, watch the video.

Pros
  • Premium water pumps are designed to improve the performance of the equivalent stock pump
Cons
  • Upgradeable

New impeller design and bolts

Features a new impeller design recommended by GM to increase coolant flow. The kit includes a gasket as any decent brand should have and 5 new bolts to attach the pump to the motor which normally have to be bought separately. It seems well built and easy to install with no leaks or bearing noise. Quality at what I think is a very good price.

Pros
  • Limited Lifetime Warranty
Cons
  • Questionable Senior Purchase

Your Chinese Base Water Pump

The good news is that it fits exactly and seems to do the job. The quality of the original does not match its quality. The original has a cast impeller, this one has a stamped one. Regular paper gasket, I used airplane caulk and some tefon paste on the included screws. It looks like a typical Chinese device that you can buy from your local auto parts store, but at least they have a lifetime warranty. Too bad Gates used to be a premium product, often better than the OEM. Nothing wrong with that,

Pros
  • Meets OE specs and requirements and works exactly the same as
Cons
  • High Price
