I believe I have a water pump issue but I would like some help in confirming my suspicions. If you look at my pictures you will see a discharge on the underside of my hood and on the windscreen washer sack. The discharge is barely noticable and what you see takes some time to develop. It wipes off and does not smell like antifreeze or oil. It doesn’t have an “Oh , thats what it is” smell to it. The pump is not noisy and there is only a slight bit of wobble when I grab onto the fan blade and give it a good shake.
My guess is based pretty much on the logic of the spray pattern. The car works fine— does not overheat,etc.
Any ideas and or questions are welcome. I plan to buy a new pump, but would like a little support for my conclusions before I place the order.
Help if you can!!!
