    Will Coolant Pump make a noise when knackered?

    HI,
    Just wondering if when the Coolant pump is on the way out would it give off any sort of noises when driviing.

    I have had like a roaring, grumbling noise when starting off, ( since we bought it) but now its getting louder and not going away at high speeds.

    Its a 2001 Discovery TD5.

    Someone suggested it could be the water pump.

    Was going to take it across to Landrover at Toowoomba today but they are shut for a Show holiday

    cheers

    More likely the Idler pulley.

    Relatively cheap to replace, cheaper to repair if your game!
    Bearing is $6.00 from a bearing place, you need to drill the welds and bolt back together after.

    HI,
    WEll I have had the Disco over at Landrover since Friday, had a phone call this morning saying they had checked out everything they could and couldnt find anything that would cause a noise. Numerous mechanics had driven it saying any noises they could hear was normal for a vehicle its age and Kms driven

    So told them to do a Auto Transmission service as its nearly due anyway.

    Then this afternoon head mechanic or someone rings said he took it for a drive and felt or heard the vibration so upon further investigation decided the Engine mounts are soft/knackered. ( whats inside an engine mount?)

    Would this cause a vibration rumble when changing through the gears ( not harsh accelerating)


    These are getting changed anyway.

    Makes you wonder what the point of there other mechanics are?

    Cheers
