Puegeot 405d water pump replacement

[joinerjohn]

Hi there, does anyone have any tips on replacing the waterpump on a Peugeot 405 diesel engine? Looking at it the access to this is very limited. Not much room for spanners/ sockets etc.

Cheers

JJ

XUD engine? Its tight in there, but you can get in with a mixture of 10mm spanners / sockets. Obviously replace the timing belt and maybe the tensioner at the same time.

..and make sure you get all of the old gasket off as its difficult to see and get to the top end, a small flat scraper is needed, something like a safty razor blade.
