MEYLE › Water pump

germancarnut51 8 May 2010, 00:08

Rating 4.0

Overheating:

The waterpump is a good idea if you're replacing the timing belt, and you don't know how old the waterpump is. Don't buy the Hepu (from germanautoparts/GAP) or Graf waterpump (looks like it may be made by the same company). I just bought a Hepu waterpump from another Vortex member who bought it fro GAP. The casting is crude, the bearing appears to be fine, but the impeller is stamped steel (which I don't like), and the finish work is mediocre, bordering on poor. For less money and free shipping you can get a Meyle waterpump from autohausaz.com.

Pros: free shipping

Cons: mediocre finish work

Don't get cheap no-name stuff. Stick with OEM, Lemforder or "real" Meyle

Pros: stick with OEM, Lemforder

Cons: cheap no-name stuff

Vehicle: BMW

Braking:

No, the Corrado G60 11" 4-bolt rotors bolt right onto the MKIII 10.1" 4-bolt hubs. I bolted on Corrado G60 Girling 54 11" calipers and Meyle Corrado 11" 4-bolt rotors to my 97 Jetta GT without any problems at all.

Pros: no problems at all

Vehicle: Volkswagen Jetta

I've just finished upgrading my 97 MKIII Jetta GT from 10.1" to 11" Corrado G60 brakes, I know what you're going through, because I've made all the mistakes.

Thank you for this write-up. I just did mine last night and it appears that all is well. I got my water pump from MJMautohaus.com. I got the metal impeller model made by Meyle pn:022121011MY.

Pros: metal impeller model

Part number: 022121011MY

MEYLE › Control arm

Clunks:
Stability:

I've used them (control arms, ball joints, strut mounts (only on street cars), wheel bearings, etc) for years without any problems. Granted I only log about 3000 miles/year on one of the cars but it takes a fair share of abuse during those miles and I haven't yet broken a ball joint or a tie-rod end.

Pros: no problems for years

Mileage: 3000 km

If it's the tie rod ends, I'm going to replace them with the Meyle HD tie rod ends.

Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat

Clunks:

If you decide to do it yourself get the Meyle ones, which are beefier.

Pros: beefier, better quality

Knocking:

Meyle are good? My brother in law had a pretty bad experience with those from ecstuning with his parents' B5 Passat..they wore out faster than the OEM tie-rods.

Cons: wore out faster

Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat B5
