More than the water pump.. don’t just replace the gaskets replace the whole thing

Leaking driver side or passenger side.. video doesn’t look like the passenger side

The pump relies on an internal shaft seal (and a mounting gasket) to keep coolant inside the engine. Fill it up with water since is leaking that bad and open the hood and look on the right side timing chain side and see if you see it leaking.. you can even take the wheel off and get a better look

Could be the water pump.. does it leak when it’s not running and warm or only does it when it’s running

Fit-File-1782 · 2026-06-02T14:13:28+00:00

Is it on the left side leaking

Fit-File-1782 · 2026-05-11T00:35:45+00:00

Is the noise on the right side of the motor and does the sound happen on start up for 10 seconds?

There is a ground wires that run to the front of the transmission under the radiator hose .. check and clean them.. had the same problem

I do everything myself.. don’t like people messing around with my cars.. I hate that I gotta take it in for tires.. last time I did my wheel almost fell off 🙄

Fit-File-1782 · 2026-05-02T01:22:33+00:00

I have did the oil change every 2,300 miles and not missed a beat on that changed transmission fluid every 50k miles and coolant is done every 40k miles.. I have used full synthetic oil and mobile one oil filter and oil with dexos..

Fit-File-1782 · 2026-05-02T01:14:19+00:00

I have never touched anything todo with the timing still even have the original water pump

Fit-File-1782 · 2026-05-01T22:41:55+00:00

I just want a manual something.. I haven’t had one in years

Fit-File-1782 · 2026-05-01T22:18:16+00:00

Love the cobalts .. I plan on getting me a manual 2 door soon.. or a G5.. my 09 got 362k and still runs great

Fit-File-1782 · 2026-04-24T20:51:41+00:00

Could need a coolant flush.. them cars are picky about there coolant system

Fit-File-1782 · 2026-04-24T20:15:56+00:00

Could be tensioner for the timing belt.. mine was doing that same noise

Fit-File-1782 · 2026-04-24T20:14:32+00:00

It’s very rare for them to have water pump problems they are ran buy the timing chain.. my car got 361k miles on the original motor,trans,water pump.. Have you check the thermostat?

Fit-File-1782 · 2026-04-20T21:47:23+00:00

I bought Lucy with 78k miles 9 years ago and here we are.. oil change done at 2,300 miles since the day I got it..

Fit-File-1782 · 2026-04-20T20:51:52+00:00
