Installing waterpump to 2004 Sprinter 2 of 2
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Part 2 or 2.
This is the second part, installation of the water pump. The video is a long, step by step process for replacing the leaky water pump from my 2004 Sprinter Van. I tried to reduce the length of the video without cutting out important installation parts. There is a significant amount of work to replace the water pump but it was not difficult. It took me about a day to get to the point where I can test start the engine and check for leaks. I finally button up everything the next day. Apologize for the outdoor noise and lighting as the Sprinter does not fit in my garage.
Here are the install/work that did not make it into this video.
* The mounting of the bumper was skipped in this video
* Coolant flush through the engine which was not included in the video.
* Installation of the left and right plastic radiator louvers
Update: After 7 months: with several 800 mile round trips from Northern California to San Diego, and many more short trips, the water pump has been working flawlessly. I did not find any leaks anywhere and the coolant level remains stead. The engine have been running much quieter with the new pulleys.
Tools used.
* standard Torx covering T30 to T50
* reverse torx E10 to E12 (Star socket)
* metric hex socket
* metric allen driver
* Electric or pneumatic impact wrench

The best sprinter water pump replacement video on KZread
Great job! Thanks for sharing these videos!
Thank you very helpful. Even though I have an OM612, it was mostly the same. I started out to replace my leaking high pressure fuel pump but after seeing how much needed to come off, I ended up replacing my thermostat, water pump, all pulleys and tensioner, alternator, and all hoses for coolant and turbo. Definitely the way to go! Those speed clips holding the bottom of the ac radiator were a real bitch to get back on. I ended up using a pair of tweezers to hold the clip in place to catch the screw. I also have a Forest River BTW w/165K. D
This was a very helpful video. Just finishing up my water pump install today.
Very best video on replacement of water pump on Sprinter. A BIG thumbs up.
good job thanks
oh just checked on weep holes..looks like the top hole is a weep hole need a place for air to escape.
There is an open hole on the top side of the pump in line with the shaft. it is open right to the shaft. That hole should probably be plugged with a piece of rubber to keep crap from getting at the shaft. The old pump had nothing covering the hole? The new one does not come with anything covering that hole.
Where did you get the torque specs?

so was the old pump bad or just corroded along the seal?
Good video... Thank you
