Engine Coolant Pump
What this part does
The water pump is responsible for circulating engine coolant between the engine block, cylinder heads, and radiator to maintain precise operating temperatures. Mounted to the engine block, it continuously pushes fluid through the cooling system while the engine is running. When a coolant pump fails, you will typically experience rapid engine overheating, a noticeable coolant leak from the shaft weep hole, or a grinding noise indicating a collapsed internal bearing.

Before you order
- Match the provided OEM number 1162524 directly against your failed unit, as BMW cooling systems vary significantly based on vehicle options and specific engine revisions.
- When replacing an engine water pump, standard trade practice dictates replacing the mounting gasket, thermostat, and associated aluminum stretch bolts at the same time.
- The cooling system on this specific 4.4L V8 must be vacuum-filled and bled according to exact factory procedures to prevent hidden air pockets and localized engine overheating.
- Inspect the accessory drive belt and tensioner while the pump is removed, as coolant contamination often degrades rubber drive components.
