ROSSCOSM Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 As titled id say its leaking alright any advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I'd suggest to clean the area first and keep a eye on it to see exactly where its leaking from . As you could end up buying and fitting a new/good 2nd hand pump , only to find out its leaking from where a pipe connects. As I'm fairly sure new pumps are close to £400 If it is the pump and you're handy with a spanner ,I Think i saw that import car parts sell a pump refurbishment kit for newage but you'd have to have a look or give Luke a bell . Hopefully it's just leaking from the feed ,return or reservoir pipe and I'm sure I.c.p do the pipe connection seals /washers for those .

savage bulldogs Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 No probs bud ,hope it's a cheap fix fella . I find autoglym machine cleaner is fairly good ,as its water based . Just don't get too much cleaner in the direction of the cambelt cover or alternator. I recently had a oil leak on my caddy workhorse but I don't normally work on the van tbh so its bay is filthy . So I got the engine steam cleaned ,by the local "wash yer car boss" for a tenner , which might be easier than doing it yourself 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROSSCOSM Posted November 23, 2019 Author Share Posted November 23, 2019 So im finally gonna be able to spend some Keesh on my wrx soon and I’m 100% now that it’s the low pressure line on my ps pump that’s leaking so that’s first. The only trouble is I’ve looked for a seal kit and the only ones I can find on ICP says bugeye only and the other says 06-14 years wtf. Is the ps pump not the same on the bug and blob anyone know?
