This clip illustrates a step by step removal of cooling system components: water pump and thermostat, for Ford Escape Limited 2010.
Hey, did you had any issues with the heater system after you worked on it ? My one doesn't heat at idle, well it heats but not at the right temperature, unless it's driven. I've replaced the water pump and thermostat (2 thermostats actually), and in the winter time still not getting in temperature at idle only. Can't have it getting hot and ready to melt the ice on the windshield. I believe I've done the correct procedure on refiling with coolant so there should be no air pockets.... It's like my new thermostats are still staying open and engine only gets hot enough when I drive the car. Can't understand what the heck it's going on.
@008Sercanu no not at all. Everything has been functioning the way it should. I believe it's an air pocket. Dismantle the far end hose that comes out of the heater core. Start up the car and see if water cycles through it when engine temperature rises. Try to suck water out from that hose to get any air pockets out.
Do you recall how much it ended up costing you to have the shop repair the shaft? I'm debating on whether to pull mine off and bring it in to my local driveline shop or whether to buy one brand new. Ford has them online for ~$550 or so shipped to my door.
I believe I paid $120. By that time, local shop needed $450. Rockauto.com price for OEM was $950. Good luck with whichever route you go for.
@@leossr Thanks for the reply. Yeah, I have a feeling my best bet might be the OEM option now that they are so affordable. My driveshaft is quite corroded and looks much worse than yours - at least on the surface.
@@feta the main rule of thumb is to invest in high quality parts since saving labor cost. Factor in the overall car shape. Glad my video shed some light about the issue.
Thank you, I have the exact same issues, your video was very helpful.
You are welcome. Thanks for your feedback @coffeeadventuretraveler
Thank you for sharing.
Welcome
That zip tie trick is not working the belt keeps coming off of the water pump pulley for some odd reason.
Hi Joe, Sorry to hear. That procedure is listed on the cars manual book. There are some tools you can buy to install the built. I can't recommend any since I never used any other way. I know I tried one off of rockauto.com but it was incompatible. Let us know if you find another way around it . Good luck .
@@leossr ok I most definitely will. Thank's
I have the exact same problem. I can get a replacement shaft from Ford for 600 CAD. Might go that route as I don't want to be given the run around by local driveshaft shops like you did.
New one is always a good solution and saves time . Good luck.
@@leossr Damn, they don't have them in stock but they have them listed in fords website, they told me 3 to 4 Weeks. I just got my car back from the shop, they told me that the carrier bearing is almost on it way out and the rear u joint is a little stiff. With that being said they also told me that the shaft could be damaged due to those items being messed up.
@@shadow212121kb that is a bummer. Try rockauto.com their prices are decent and sometimes have OEM . Don't worry I have no kick back from them . I just use them for their good prices .
@@leossr I've been on this all day. Locally in Toronto Ontario Ford nearby has it for 818 dollars, ford Oakville plant has it for 600 dollars, partsource 1300. No one can get it till about 3 weeks. I called a place in Montreal called Unitrans and they have a new one ready to ship 610 dollars CAD shipped next day via Purolator. Not bad. I'll have this resolved very soon. Your video is super helpful as well. Feels like I've already done the job just by watching lol
@@shadow212121kb good luck . At least it is drivable until you get the part . Appreciate your feedback about my TH-cam post.
What are the torque specs?
That zip tie trick was pretty neat 😬👍🏽
Appreciate it . Make sure not to over crank it. Good luck
awesome thanks
You are welcome
I just replaced my water pump and it's leaking even worse than before
Did you use gasket maker ? It should be evenly spread on the water pump edges and the base. I would wait an hour or two for gasket maker to dry. Also the water pump must lined up with it's base on the first trial. If missed, remove it and check any sealer weakend spots.
Do you still own this vehicle? I’m fixing my 2009 Ford Escape for one of my siblings and I’m replacing everything I can think of so she won’t have any problems for a couple of years... lol. This car has been good to me though
Sergio Mata . Although others don't seem to like it, but it has proven to be reliable ride. Yes I still own it.
Ty so much! Video was perfect. Exactly what I was needing. Was wondering cost of balance and 2 bearing replacement at shop?
I believe I paid $25 for changing one universal joint , the bearing checked good. Then I was charged $80 or something close to put the drive shaft on an inspection machine. I am glad it gave you a reference point. Thanks for your feedback.
A zip tie master, nice!
Thanks, Jeff.
Hi hope u respond.... is the driveshaft of V6 and 4 cylinder the same on ford escape xlt?
Hi Jj .. I am not sure. You can ask whom you're purchasing from they probably would know. Also, compare the pictures of the two, check the barcode if it matches.. or buy from a place that offers free returns.
Well done my friend :) Today I also replace these parts. Great video reference.
Appreciate it
Appreciate it
Thank for the video. where did you get the water pump? part number?
Rockauto.com . I chose the motorcraft.
Hi. Thank you for the video. Do you know the part number for each item? To buy?
Hi Juan, I remember buying everything from rock auto website. All fit except the thermostat housing gasket. So I head to a local store and got me a durable one.
I was able to see the order history from rockauto.com Apex Awo2001 water gasket that didn't fit . Motorcraft rg571 Motorcraft rt1175 Motorcraft pw493 Motorcraft jk3211a
Glad it worked out for you. I have the same issue, new u-joints, still vibrating. Having the driveshaft checked for balancing issue could be in order for sure. Low mileage and I am hesitant to replace the center bearing as it spon normally last time I checked it.
Hi Guy . Great that my video helped out or at least gave some ideas where the issue might be. The overall performance machine check will provide perfect inspection for the functionality of the drive shaft .. I had to pay extra for that to eliminate any chances of malfunction before re installing. Good luck.
Is the larger pulley supposed to turn freely?
Hi Scott If you mean the larger pulley which the other side of the belt is connected to, Don't believe so. I had to attach the belt with zip ties to it then cranked the engine and killed it quickly to get the belt to sit on it.
Good video.
you need more lighting can't see what you doing
Great video man... What brand of water pump did you use? I know it's been almost 2 years... Have you had any troubles with it?
Since I save money on labor, I always pick high end parts. I replaced it with motor craft brand water pump which is what Ford recommends. No leaks or any heating issue. Coolant Reservoir is still full from that time. Just make sure to vent the system by loosing the Allen bolt on the top of water pump housing ... I mentioned that at the end of the installation video. Good luck and thanks for watching.
where did you take the shaft to be repaired? I have the same problem with 2007 Ford Escape Hybrid Drive Shaft.
I thought it would be a machine shop. But I was lucky to find drive shaft repair specialist which has special machines for this purpose. I live in Columbus Ohio. I ll get you the address if you live close.
Should I need wait for a few minutes until the sealer dries? Nice vid thanks
Hi adrian .. I used a sealer / gasket maker along with the gasket. That tube has some directions and waiting time. So yes . It is recommended to wait. Thanks for watching.
excellent video!
Thanks Jimmy.. if you have any question let me know.
I'm preparing for this job myself. My wife's Escape started to throw belts at 120K miles. One thing you forgot to mention is the cable linkage (yellow plastic cap) that's in the way of the third bolt. You must unclip it and move it out of the way to get access. It's also easier to remove the thermostat housing first.
How many miles did you have on it when your water pump froze?
140K miles... Original pump was in so I bought motor craft brand. Looks like they last for good.
my 2012 went out at 112k, my buddy's 2009 went out at 107k
mine went out at 100k 😬
Good video thanks bro
mr24k78 glad you like it. Thanks for watching
How long did it take to replace the pump start to finish?
Removing it was pretty much straight forward. We are talking around half an hour to 40 mints. Installing on the other hand need more dedication especially when applying sealers so it took me an hour then top it with another one since I trouble shot taking air bubbles out the system which the maintenance manual didn't mention it.
great vid
Hero walker I appreciate your feedback. Plz check the installation as it has an air bleeding trick for the system to work right.
What did you uses to remove the 3rd bolt below the thermostat housing?
Please tell me which time stamp so I have a better idea.. thanks
Around 11:16 when your trying to take the last bolt off the water pump
And was your coolant green? Coz ford gave me a gold one for my 2010 escape
I got mine from the auto shop which has light green color. I believe it should be the same
I had to put the car gear on L so the transmission cable and plastic piece move a way a bit and free some space
