Review on πŸ’§ Gates 42292 Water Pump – Efficient Performance for Optimal Water Circulation by Juston Alonso

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great value for money in water pumps

I have a 2006 Chrysler Town and Country (LX) and it fits perfectly. The ride is really smooth. I installed it last month and it's a pain trying to get the old one out. I recommend lowering the engine a few inches or you'll be cursing most of your Saturday. I ended up doing it and the old pump came out. The new one had to jiggle a bit to get it in there, but once it got in, the seal was tight. Be sure to use sealant for gaskets, a rubber ring will not do. I couldn't use a torque wrench as the fit is very tight, but if you do it a quarter turn after tightening the wrench, you're fine. The pump leaked and the belt squeaked, now it works like new. Couldn't be happier with this part. The price was great too.

Pros
  • Engine cooling and climate control
Cons
  • Hard to remember but it was
