I binned off my original water pump which was now made of cheese and spraying my engine bay like that and bought an SIL Saleri (Italian) pump online. Metal impeller and comes with the seals kit for it too. been perfect for years.
I replaced a perfectly functioning OE Saleri at 12 years/90,000 miles. I will stick with the OE Saleri even though it has the plastic impeller.
i replace with OE saleri pumps every so often and havent opted for a stewart pump.
Saleri is what I put in. No issues about a year in.
I got a saleri installation was very easy and it spun nice.
I have a Saleri pump with a Victor reinz paper gasket. I did not realize during my replacement that oem isn’t paper as that’s what was already on there, and haven’t had a problem. Interested to know if they fail slowly or suddenly and if I have to add another preventative maintenance item to my list, but it’s been going strong for 30K miles.
I had a Saleri pump. I changed it at 100,000 in 2013 and bearing was good at around 145,000 in 2021. I inspected it with a camera. It appeared to be leaking at the gasket.
The Saleri started leaking at the shaft so it wasn't an issue with the gasket. The Saleri had a plastic impeller while the OE had a metal impeller.
I bought a saleri water pump with plans to install it myself. When I realized the job would be a little harder than I expected I decided to take it to a shop to install. They just sent me a report saying that they installed the saleri and it “was not within the tolerances for the spec” and it began “leaking immediately”. There solution is to order me a graf water pump which they describe as a “reputable” brand which insinuates that I brought them a water pump worse than a graf which from my research doesn’t seem to be true. I’m a little frustrated as they are billing me $400 extra to buy and install the Graf when I thought the saleri one should’ve been fine.
After researching I decided upon a Saleri pump from World Impex since it has the resin impeller and is 1/4 the cost of OEM. Well, the first one arrived with one of the vanes broken off the impeller. Impex rma'd it, but the second one arrived in even worse shape with a big chunk broken off the impeller. I attribute it to poor packaging.
