What the term "estate car" actually means is nothing more than just a normal car with a bigger loading space. Such cars are practical and convenient especially for big family trips. Characteristic of the estate cars, as we already mentioned, is the bigger baggage, which is almost as big as with the SUVs and along with that, these cars still manage to be as comfortable as family hatchbacks could be. Estate cars are looking good - they are usually with good design and very much look like little SUVs, but they are just easier to drive in the city. Although it is strongly individually for each model and car, the estate cars move lightly and easily, as they are maneuverable. It is no problem for you to drive your whole family with the estate car. Even if you are travelling with your pet, your family would still feel comfortable on the back seat. And in case your partner also has a driving license, then you could both take turns in driving the car, even if your partner hasn't got much practice.
The BMW 5 Series are a whole different class in the car industry. Their design is elegant and very specific for the brand BMW; the cabin is spacious and comfortable, but also luxurious, like that of the Audi. The loading area is definitely enough for a big family and driving such a car is just a pleasure. The Audi A6 is another high-class estate car. It is also good-looking and its price is higher than the base model prices. It is a comfortable and useful car for your family trips or a group travelling to a business meeting. This car is efficient and does not use a lot of petrol with its 2.0 TDI engine. And, the Volkswagen Golf Estate is a whole different car. It has all the good sides - big cabin, big loading area and is much cheaper than the previous estate cars. It is a really good car for the money it costs and offers great comfort for that price. The estate cars are now a whole new department of the automotive industry. Such cars are convenient for the whole family in or outside the city.
This is one of those things you really want to make sure you do well or the job was pointless, so let's do it right the first time! First, remove the four fan bolts from the old water pump and put them on the new water pump. The new water pump should have a new plug supplied with it, put this plug in the same spot it is on the old pump. If a new plug is not provided (unlikely, but can happen) remove the old plug. This can prove to be very difficult. Soak the old plug with "screw loose" or "WD 40" to loosen it up. You may even need to smack the heck out of the old pump to break that old plug loose. Yep, you may look like a raving lunatic smacking the old pump with a hammer, but just mention what you're doing and anyone that knows engines will understand!
Now that you got that plug out of the old water pump, put it in the same spot on the new pump. Any other adapters old the old pump you should transfer to the new water pump. Using emery cloth, fine sandpaper (220 or higher) or a Dremel (use with caution, no gouging) clean the mating surface. When the mating surface is clean and dry prepare the new water pump for installation. It can be tricky mounting the pump while keeping the gaskets aligned and starting the bolts. The pump can be rather heavy, in an award position, with the gaskets slipping here and there. I have had a couple of failed installs because gaskets slipped, causing water to gush out and leaving me with a water pump to re-install, but not anymore. This is how I manage to do this part but whatever works for YOU then do that.
