Sir I cannot express to you enough how thankful I am that you did this video.
Thanks to you I was able to take on this job by following your video step by step . The word needs more people like you, on behalf of myself and family we say thank you very much for saving us a great amount of money and headache. All the best to you!
Paul, your words are too kind! That is exactly why I started this channel. I really enjoy learning and teaching and especially saving money. Kudos to you for trying something new and succeeding! You made my day. Cheers!
@@learnsavediy I subscribed and will be following. Do you still have the jeep BTW?
@@paulcolletta859 Welcome! Yes I do. Put about 30K on it since this video. No leaks and the water pump is still working great!
@@learnsavediy super cool!
You the man!
Wow that holes in the cardboard box trick is pure genius. Thanks. What a great video.
Glad it was helpful and thanks for your kind words. Cheers!
Thank you so much. I'm going through a patch where everything on my Jeep seems to be hitting me all at once. Had to learn to do some things myself to avoid the big repair bills. I was able to complete this job because of your help. Really saved me
Glad it helped! Thanks for sharing. Cheers
Thanks for the video. Gave me the confidence to change out water pump on my '14 JGC myself. Turned out to be easier than I thought. Good suggestion with the cardboard to keep bolt location. I used a drop of oil on the first few threads of the bolds during assembly to reduce friction since they are threading into aluminum. Helped them go in easier then torqued them down to 20 ft-lbs.
Glad it was helpful! And thank you for sharing your tip. Keep up the great work, cheers!
I had one bolt that was stubborn when removing it...that 15mm stud in the middle. Zapped it with some white lithium grease and it went back in very smoothly!
This was the best step-by-step video for this job. I just finished it and it went flawless. Nice two hour job. Thanks for the help, this video was invaluable.
So glad to hear it! Thank you for sharing and glad it was helpful!! Cheers
HEY,
Just wanted to thank you for this video. Its excellent and help me complete this work on my 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit. Loved the cardboard box!!! Thank you again!
I’m glad the video helped! That’s my goal!!! Cheers
So, I swapped out my water pump on my 2012 5.7 Hemi Jeep today. I have to say, your box-bolt diagram holder is the best idea ever! It was a life saver. I can't tell you the number of times I swapped out a water pump in an autopart's parking lot! The last time was on the way to the beach in a 2005 Jeep grand Wagoneer with the 3.6L V6. That water pump is stupid simple to replace and took less than 2 hours...unfortunately, we lost a bolt in the process and that took an additional hour+ to find it! (it was between the radiator and the AC condenser). Had I done the box-bolt diagram holder, the job would have been done 2 hours quicker! Thanks for the idea! The water pump went smoothly and the Jeep is no longer over heating now!
So glad to hear it! When I changed the water pump on this the first time, I dropped a thermostat housing bolt and it took 40 minutes to find it. So frustrating!!!
Hey thanks a bunch. I replaced the water pump in my 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee with 5.7 hemi. Great idea on the box for the bolts, you made the job easier.
Way to go! Thanks for watching!
Just did my wife's '12. One thing I'll add is, it doesn't hurt to back fill the waterpump via that bleeder plug on the pump face. I fought with flash boiling for awhile, even replaced the t stat after installing the new pump. Never had to do this on a waterpump before, but it did the trick.
Great tip! Cheers
I am becoming a CZcams certified mechanic thanks to your videos hahaha
Haha, I'm glad you were able to take away something. More videos to come soon! Cheers.
Box idea was genius. Also appreciate you show how clips work so I am not breaking them everywhere from frustration.
Glad it was helpful!! Cheers
AWESOME JOB AND THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR TAKING THE TIME TO HELP OTHERS!! You've got a good heart and spirit!!
Thank you!
So thankful for this video. Helped tremendously! The cardboard trick was a great idea. Thank you!!
So glad to hear it! Way to go :D
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Your video is awesome! I greatly appreciate your guidance on this video. I couldn't have done it without this!
So happy to hear it! That’s why I started this channel. Thanks for making my day. Cheers
I know this is an older video but a question why do some of the 5.7 have the temperature sensor built into the water pump and others do not
I did my jeep today thanks to ur video sir, so far everything looking good thank you
Awesome! I’m glad the video helped. I’m going strong on my repair 2 years later and 30K+ miles, including towing. 👍
Hope this helps. Once upon a time I replaced and idle pully. Brand new oem Part out of the box bound tight when the bolt was torqued. So I used a washer just big enough to touch the pully bearing center shaft but not the shield or outer race under the head of the boIt. I had to drill a small washer to fit the bolt. Use a vise or vice grips and step drill not a twist bit for oversize washer holes. Any time you need to drill thin metal with a larger than thickness bit use a block of wood to support punch thru.
Awesome tip, Christian. Thanks for sharing! Cheers
I just bought a used 2014 and had the water pump blow the next day lol. This video has me fixing it myself vs dealing with the extended warranty people :)
Glad the video was helpful. My hope is to show people they can learn to fix things themselves. It just takes some patience and courage to try new things. Thanks for sharing! Cheers.
Dude thanks so much for your time to make this video!!! You saved me so much money and i cant thank you enough for it!! Tremendous work my man❤❤❤
Awesome!!! So glad you were able to do it!
Bro you are the best this saved me tons of money I greatly appreciate your videos. Nicely done and well done.👍
Glad it helped :)
Great vid, but I would recommend opening the bleeder plug until coolant runs out when refilling the rad. You don’t want an air lock. Don’t notice if you placed the t-stat giggle pin at 12:00 o’clock to help prevents air locks, but always a good idea.
Did you use anything on the o-ring for the heater pipe? I would think Silglide would be ok.
Thanks for the tips. I didn't have an issue with air lock but hopefully this comment can help someone who has an issue. I just put a touch of coolant on the o-ring so it wouldn't roll when reinstalling.
Great video thanks so much
If y’all are having problems installing the tubes back, I recommend sanding down a bit on the tube before reinstalling.
Also, install the tube *BEFORE* you tighten the bolts. Leave the pump loose and put the tube in. A dead-blow hammer worked for me. Then tightened down the bolts (15 foot pounds in a criss-cross pattern, then 21 foot pounds) and the tube stayed put!
You can also slide the pipe in when you’re mounting the new pump. Use a little lube, ie Silglide etc…
Im gonna try and do my hemi 5.7 thanks for the video man hope everything goes good for me
You've got this! Let us know how it goes!
Really nice step by step video.
I just did mine after being quoted $900 by a garage to do it. The gates pump is $60 from rock auto.
I get that shops need to make money but not from me if I can help it.
Exactly my thoughts. Especially with prices of everything, DIY is the way to go if you feel comfortable. I think it was ~$120 for the belt, pump, coolant, and thermostat (not including tools). You could easily get the rest of the tools and likely be under $200 or $250 and then you easily saved yourself $650!
Dear friend, first of all I am grateful for your work, it is really very important and interesting. Perhaps you can help with some advice, I replaced it on my Hemi about 25,000 km, but unfortunately I did not use sealant for the gasket, in your video it is red. Now, around the pump I encounter particles of dried antifreeze. I bought a new pump and want to repeat it, but only with sealant. Thank you sincerely in advance.👏🏻
You are welcome. I actually did a follow up video where I developed another water pump leak because of a loose bolt: czcams.com/video/yJTfSiD_90M/video.html . Maybe that video might give you some more thoughts to consider. The gasket should do the job without a need for sealant/RTV. The RTV is purely there to help hold the gasket in place. I would say there is nothing wrong with using the gasket with a little RTV but you can get away without it. The seal is made with the gasket. Might also want to ensure to check the water pump torque specs since they could be loosening themselves over time.
Followed step by step… perfect
Way to go!!
Great video thanks
You’re very welcome!
Great job on the video. Very well thought out and I love the box idea.
Thank you!
Thank you so much!
You’re welcome!
Thanks a lot for the video. Thought old pump housing was fully drained but final bolt that came out caused a little waterfall underneath vehicle. Other than that very detailed step by step video. Cheers!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for your kind words. Cheers!
@@learnsavediy no worries, quick question, my funnel was left 1/3 full when starting engine for the first time but then after not even 10 minutes there was backfill all the way up to almost the top. Just heat expansion and residual previous coolant backfilling? 2011 jeep grand overland used prestone concentrate with 1 part distilled water.
I believe I may just have too much fluid in system now.
@@patrickmcnabb3524 Good question! If it starts to back, it is due to the head expansion and the thermostat not opening yet (which is why is finally goes down once the car is up to operating temperature). You'll know you've overfilled the system if the coolant tank has too much coolant. Otherwise bleed the system as shown in the video and put the residual coolant necessary to fill the coolant reservoir tank to the "H" line indicating the "hot" full line.
@@learnsavediy quick update. Had some air trapped in the top of water pump assembly behind thermostat lower unit. Unscrewed bleeder port and filled with coolant until some came out. Operating temp and full heat. Job.well.done.
@@patrickmcnabb3524 so happy to hear it!!
Oh man the card board idea is great.I have a question about that blender when you fill the radiator don’t you have to open bleeder or just use the radiator air bleeding system bucket yes I have one..
I assume you meant the bleeder? You can crack it open as it will make the process faster but as you can see I didn’t and it works just fine.
Great video. I would like to drain all the coolant from my Jeep but the valve on the radiator only gets me the 25% or so that's in the radiator. How do I drain the rest? Thanks
You’d have to remove the lower radiator hose and use a hose to flush everything out from the upper radiator hose.
@@learnsavediy Thanks. It's too cold here to get the hose out. I took the lower hose off and blew air through it.
14:50 That o-ring on the small water pipe looks "tired." Can that o-ring be purchased? What size? Did you do this job without removing the electric cooling fan and radiator?
Hi Chet. I did a quick google search and found this information for the O-Ring on the inlet tubing. "Mopar Performance 53013736AA MOPAR O Ring Heater Line". Double check fit with your make and model but yes you can definitely purchase just the O-ring. You do not need to take off the cooling fan and radiator. What you see in this video is all you need to move. Cheers
@@learnsavediy Thanks so much for your information.
Great video! Any chance you have had to replace the exhaust manifolds? My 2012 JGC 5.7 HEMI passenger side exhaust manifold is warped with a broken bolt and needs a to be replaced. Mechanic want to pull the engine, but I was wondering if that was the only way to get to them? Have you had to tackle exhaust manifolds?
Can’t say I’ve had that issue (yet). I know there are tons of videos for manifolds and advice to remove those stubborn bolts. Search HEMI exhaust manifold for some videos too. Cheers
Nice vid, well done, but dumb question, will this work for a 2006 jeep grand Cherokee overland 5.7 hemi water pump ? thank you....
The basic process will but there might be slight differences since 2011 was the start of the WK2 generation of jeeps.
@@learnsavediy Got it done, your vid helped a lot, thank you....
The Chilton's manual says 18 foot pounds for 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee's with a 5.7 liter or 6.1 liter Hemi's.
Thanks! Any idea what is for the WK2? I’m sure the specs are pretty close to these
Very good video man! Helped me out a lot.
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching, cheers!
Good video super, all you have to do is take your time thank you
That's it. Not too bad, even if it's your first time.
Great job man. Thank you.
Thanks! Cheers
Amazing video, I do have a question I went to autozone the other day and saw different types of coolant and one labeled for all makes and models but it's not the usual orange colored that my jeep takes, would the all model work well with the engine or will it end up harming it later on?
Personally I wouldn’t want to gamble it. Coolants are specially formulated for the engines they are in so I find it hard to believe there is a all-in-one solution that works well on every car. I’m sure it would “work” but the long term effects might cost more than what you saved. If you don’t want to buy mopar, I have heard that Zerex is “equivalent” off-brand.
Only pointer is don't use that much rtv. Really you only need a few small dabs to hold the gasket in place. None is preferable on rubber gaskets.
Fair point. It’s just to hold it in place but having none is preferred.
Good job! Those damn gloves fall apart. I thought it was just me. Lol
That’s why I don’t wear gloves half the time! They dismantle themselves less than halfway through!
So that’s all the coolant and distilled water you needed to fill it back up? I’m doing my water pump tomorrow and I’m doing it on the exact same car so that’s why I’m wondering
For mine, yes. Doesn’t hurt to get more in case you’re worried! Cheers!
Informative video. Thank You.
Glad it helped!
My water pump came with a red gasket (Jeep 2008 Grand Cherokee 5.7 L) It is unclear if I have to buy another gasket to put on top of the red gasket!
If it comes with a gasket, use the supplied one. I only used RTV in addition to help the gasket stay in place. It’s not required
The box diagram bolt holder is so fkin nifty, about to do this to my 2020 wish me luck
You got this! It’s a much easier job than it seems. Let us know how it goes!
Great video! very informative..I do have one addition to the video, you never mentioned anything about torquing down any of the bolts or did you show it in the video. which some viewers may not be aware of, but otherwise you are a very skilled teacher and I hope you continue down this path you did great!👍😊
Thank you. I did not use a torque wrench for the bolts but a great tip nonetheless. Cheers!
great video, clear
Glad it was helpful. Cheers!
Heater hose is tough to put back on I didn’t replace the o-ring could that be against me?
Depends who you ask. If the o-ring was not torn nor worn to the point coolant could seep out, personally I'd say don't worry about it.
It is not necessary to use RTV.. that pump has a gasket and grove designed to compress the gasket for the seal. Adding RTV is just opening the possibility for a leak..
I find it makes it easier for installation and after 30K and 3 years no leaks I have no qualms, but if someone can do it without it, go for it 👍
My ‘05 had an orange silicone style o-ring and no rtv the first it was changed. Most aftermarket wp’s come with a rubber o-ring. So a little rtv shouldn’t hurt anything.
Permatex makes a grey rtv specifically for wp’s.
thanks for the video it's extremely helpful. I noticed you used gates and I was wondering if it was reliable cuz I wanna buy one and I'm not sure whether or not buying gates or stick with mopar.
I'd say it's completely up to you. I haven't had any issues since this install. I've heard good things about gates from other folks too. Your call but I have no complaints!
@@learnsavediy unfortunately I have to replace it again after 25k miles since I installed the last one and it was mopar. apparently there is noise comes from the pulley and it's wobbling. Is it normal for hemi water pump to keep failing in less than its estimated lifespan? thanks
@@AbdullahADFpoint unfortunately yes. This is an extremely common issue which is why I didn’t go OEM. I’ve put about 20k on this water pump and it’s still holding up
Very cool video thanks for it
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching and your kind comment. Cheers!
Hi thanks for the video - what's the black pipe feed (tie into) heating?
It's a water pump bypass so that while the thermostat is closed coolant can still circulate. It's the inlet for the HVAC (see link: amzn.to/48t1wCo)
I want to put the anti freeze recommended by the car do i have use distilled water ?
So I just can't just use antifreeze i need the distilled water to mix with it ?
@@alvaro19899 Sorry. I deleted my response so I can not cause confusion. There are two types of coolants you can get: concentrate or 50/50. If you get concentrated like I did, you have to add distilled water. If you buy 50/50, the water is already added. It is cheaper to buy concentrated and add your own water but either will work. Just make sure to add water if you get concentrated since it does NOT have the water added. Your coolant should always be 50% antifreeze and 50% water. I hope that clarifies it now!
@@learnsavediy thank you sir for ur info
Thank god for u bro 😎
Thank you so much
Glad it helped! Cheers
Thanks needed that information 🫡
You’re welcome!
Question after use the red rtv did you have to end up changing pump again or take it back to use a different rtv
I use the red RTV just to help hold the water pump gasket in place since it is being mounted vertically and may fall out of place. I have not had any leaks or issues using the red RTV in addition to the included gasket.
I used the red and now have a leak and pump is going out. I Changed it 2 years ago. Heading to parts store now to get a new one and going to not use the rtv this time.
You shouldn't ever use red rtv form a gasket with a rubber or any factory gasket. You should use a spray adhesive to hold a factory gasket in place while attach part to motor.
Permatex Excellent RTV specific for water pumps. It’s Gray.
What is the average cost. To have this done?
Depends. I called the dealer and they said labor was ~350 and the pump was another 300. They said it was another 150 to diagnose the water pump as the source of the coolant leak. So labor and parts was at least 750 if not more. I didn't call other shops but I assume it would a couple hundred at the very least. I paid ~120 for the pump, belt, thermostat, RTV, and coolant. It was super easy job and I'm glad I did it myself, especially as this is a known issue for these GC's.
@@learnsavediy I'm haveing this done at a local place. They charged me 890.00.
@@theflash7100 wow. Thanks for letting me know. I know it can be a pretty costly repair.
Thanks
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!
Wats the Dr pepper for???🤔
Reward for when you finish! 😉
Doing mine and my helper knocks the bolts all over the place. I'm screwed
Thankfully there aren’t too many with this job! You’ve got this 💪
You know if the hemi 2011 is the same as 2005???
Good question. I don’t think they are the same but the process of course is similar. Drain the radiator once the time is cool, remove the belt and anything blocking access to the water pump bolts, replace, and bleed the system. Sorry that’s not much help!
Very similar except for the location of the temp sensor. Later models the sensor is located on the water housing versus the block on older models.
I'm getting charged a bit over $1,000 for a water pump replacement on a 2014 Grand Cherokee 5.7 Hemi... the pump is about $200, plus let's say another $100 for coolant, water, belt, sensor, etc. You're easily saving about $700 bucks if you follow this video.
Thanks Gaston! That’s the hope is to help people save. Things are too expensive these days so my hope is to helps folks out with my videos.
Why are u replacement it i have one i believe its making loud noise
I had a coolant leak from the water pump (very common). I figured since I was already this deep into the cooling system, I would replace the thermostat and belt too. The pulley could be going bad. No super common but it does happen.
Changing mine today. It was making noise and found the bearing shot but before the seal let go. The factory didn't use sealant so I didn't...just cleaned everything real good like L,S,D sez. Thanks L,S,D !!!
any torque specs?
I didn't use any torque specs. No issues whatsoever after almost 2 years. I think the water pump bolts are close to 20 ft-lbs? I sometimes just put in the make+model+part+"torque specs" and can usually get an idea from forums or other sources for free. Hope that helps!
Should of showed the bolts as you took them out. Also you didn't say anything about the bleeder bolt it jus vanishes in your video
Great video brother
Thanks!
I have the exact same maroon 2011 5.7 and......THEY ARE JUNK!! First the fan crapped out, then the coolant temp sensor, then the thermostat, then the A/C, now my water pump. All that in the first 6 months I've owned it. First Jeep... definitely my last.
My Hyundai Elantra has more miles and has had exceptionally less problems than my Jeep. I’m thinking the same thing as you.
Thank god for u bro 😎
