hey guys, last night after driving back home i was letting my car cool down on idle then all of a sudden my secondary coolant pump started making a terrible noise i know they are a lil but noisy but this was rediculous almost sounded like something had broken down inside it?! is this common? and is the unit sealed or can i get into it and see whats going on? any help much appreciated!

beter off remove it all mate

why the fook would you want to do that??? read things properly before posting! or just dont bother replying with daft answers





nicki - mine started doing this before but then stopped doing it, i had some air in the system and the pump was air locked,

was the coolant temp gauge ok when you had been driving it?

it is a fairly common thing to brake on these motors

it does indeed, not a bad time for a none mapped cupra :)

never managed a run in mine while it was stock, but stage 1 map and full exhaust and fmic i managed 14.3, so get it mapped and you'll be much quicker
