Keep in mind:
\n\n
\n- If you opt to do it yourself socket set, screwdriver, wrench, spark plug wire puller, sealant, clean rag, rubber mallet, and of course a replacement water distribution pipe (which is potentially many times more expensive than getting a technician to do it for you).
\n- Be sure to place your vehicle in a well-ventilated space with proper lighting to help you see its components better while doing this repair.
\n
\n\n
How it's done:
\n\n
\n- Professional technicians are best equipped to check if the water distribution pipe is leaking with a coolant pressure test for the cooling system.
\n- Access the pipe by taking off engine components such as the air box, fan shroud, cooling fan, serpentine belt, radiator hoses, and coolant hoses.
\n- Remove the hose clamp and secure the fasteners.
\n- Certain pipes have coolant sensors that will need to be removed or replaced.
\n- Do the procedure in reverse.
\n- Drive test the car to verify. Let it cool down to check the coolant level and then fill it.
\n
\n\n
