The 07 petrol Rubi goes in tomorrow to have the water pump replaced again The replacement pump that was fitted on 06/05/14 shit itself on Sunday and sprayed red dye, (from the coolant) all around the engine bay. Fortunately the replacement pump has a warrantee on it.

Picked the Rubi up this afternoon after having the water pump replaced again.
The problem with the first replacement that died on Sunday was determined to be a defective welsh plug that was not installed/sealed correctly during manufacture of the pump.

Thank goodness for warrantees on parts, so it cost me nothing for a replacement, other than the inconvenience of being without a car for the day.

Really good to hear that it has worked out well with regards to the warranty!
