    Hi all,

    I’m looking to replace my water pump on my 1.3 in the next few days, but it looks incredibly squished in there. I’ve heard about the ability to do it through the wheel well, I’ve also heard that you’ll need to raise the engine. Are there any videos of someone raising a copen engine without a hoist, or even more niche, someone replacing a water pump without moving the engine?

    I’ve looked at the mechanics manual, and it looks like a simple job, but when you look inside the car it doesn’t look so simple now. Help :(

    thanks
