2001 Subaru Outback - Water Pump

Subaru Outback Water Pump

The water pump on your Subaru Outback pushes coolant throughout the engine and cooling system to keep your SUV at the appropriate operating temperature. Water pumps are made up of a bearing and impeller inside the water channel of the engine. Water pumps and their bearings can wear out with time. Common signs of water pump failure include a squeaking sound from the pulley, leaking coolant near the water pump, engine overheating, or steam coming from the radiator or around the engine. If your Subaru Outback needs a replacement water pump, radiator hose, or other cooling system part, O'Reilly Auto Parts carries these parts and more so you can make a full cooling system repair.
