What Causes the Engine Water Pump to Make Noise?
1 Answers
Engine water pump noise is caused by: 1. Unstable idle speed: The car water pump is connected to the belt to draw cold water from the radiator to cool the engine. If the water pump rotation is problematic, it will directly affect the engine speed, manifesting as unstable vehicle speed. This usually occurs after the engine has been running for a while, and may cause stalling if the resistance is too great; 2. Coolant leakage; 3. Noise issues: When the car water pump begins to fail, it will exhibit abnormal noise symptoms. The cause of the noise is usually damaged internal bearings or loose impellers that have detached from the rotating shaft, creating abnormal sounds.
