Are Circoli water pumps any good?
The pump on my V6 is leaking. I can get a Circoli one today from Europarts £32 or wait for a DMGRS one a bit dearer. But are they reliable?

Thanks Steve but DMGRS' one claims to be made by same as OEM suppliers and is a bit cheaper than this.

Knowing where the water pump is and what it involves, I wouldn't fit anything but the best I could get my hands on. Never used Circoli but they do get good reviews on other car forums

Thanks for that. I've just dug out the receipt from when I bought the car and it was supposed to have had a new water pump fitted: I've done just 10K miles since. I'll let you know what make it is once it's off. These motors are not cheap to run . . .

My last one was a unipart, let go after 6yr (copious amounts of water) and brought my belt change forward by about 8 weeks

I may well be wrong, but I thought BGA were OEM suppliers of the V6 water pump, stand to be corrected. Metal impellar.
