MEYLE doubles MEYLE-HD VW and Porsche water pump range
Share:

MEYLE has doubled its existing range of MEYLE HD water pumps for VW and Porsche models. Now totalling 18 items, the MEYLE HD water pump range allows independent workshops to service an even wider array of vehicle applications and take full advantage of the benefits of SiC/SiC mechanical seals fitted on all MEYLE HD water pumps.


A defective water pump can quickly cause serious engine damage but this can be avoided with MEYLE-HD water pumps. These pumps feature an extremely hard-wearing mechanical seal with SiC/SiC sliding face material pairing. The seal, which is used on MEYLE water pumps, offers excellent resistance to abrasive substances something that makes this type of pump technology the choice for leading vehicle manufacturers. An extremely heat-resistant housing seal and the water pump bearing in original-equipment quality also add extra durability to the MEYLE-HD water pump design.

MEYLE recommends that technicians only use the sealing material included in the MEYLE kit or specified by the manufacturer when installing the new water pump. Fitters should also apply silicon sealant sparingly to prevent mechanical seal damage and/or coolant contamination.

MEYLE also says that when replacing the water pump, the entire cooling system needs to be flushed thoroughly prior to refilling the system with new coolant.

The “MEYLE Mechanics” how-to video provides further information on how to flush the cooling system. View by clicking the link below.

MEYLE and MEYLE HD parts are available from stockist nationwide and are distributed in Ireland by Strongline Autoparts Limited. For more information call 01-462-4631.
