Kevin W Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Arrived home today to hear a nasty hissing noise from the engine - even when switched off. It had lost most of its coolant (more than 5 litres), and when I top it up it leaks out the bottom ! Thankfully the oil is OK. I have checked the threads and it seems that the water pump has gone. Now this is the question... I live about 15 minutes drive from Phoenix - should I risk it and drive there with little coolant, or is that just being daft? Opinions appreciated - no liability attached! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Yeah you should be OK! I've driven a few hundred miles with a broken water pump few weeks ago. Just top up the radiator before you set off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
