New Engine Water Pump from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ia/ACEWP00027
The water pump keeps coolant flowing through your engine. Common failures of the water pump will leave the coolant leaking, or stagnant. Both will lead to overheating if left untreated. Install a new engineered to fit water pump from TRQ for total peace of mind. This video shows you how to install a TRQ water pump in your 2007-2016 GMC Acadia.

This is probably one of the best instructional videos I’ve ever seen. This video should be used to show others how to make instructional videos.. This mechanic was in a clean and quiet environment. He had everything planned out. Camera angles were perfect. Thank you very much.
This was spot on - every point. But you took an insurmountable job, broke it down into pieces and made it achievable. You are one of the best presenters of content - no bs, no wasting time, no unnecessary personality to put up with. Just disseminating information is the most professional way. I'm subscribing. Thank you so much.
Hey guys. I don't normally comment on these types of videos, but thought it was warranted this time. I got home from work last night and found a puddle of coolant under my wife's Acadia in the driveway and diagnosed a bad water pump. While I normally do all of the work on our vehicles, some of the videos I had seen from this process made me scared to even touch the thing. However, after finding this video and watching it through a few times just to get an idea of what the process looked like, I got the job done in less than 4 hours this morning. Going step by step through a decent size job like this makes all of the difference to a DIYer such as myself, and I know the $300 plus that you saved me is just a drop in the bucket compared to all of the money you've saved everybody by making these videos over the years. Thank you so much for the production and leaving these up for everyone to see as time goes on, and I want to encourage anyone out there that sees a daunting task like this to take it one step at a time, you might surprise yourself with what you are capable of.
Great explanation. You're like the Bob Ross of mechanics
First off thank you. Just finished this job on my wife's vehicle. It was at the 10:30 mark that changed my life. I now understand why you did not show the removal of all water pump bolts.
To anyone thinking of doing this, please be prepared to get creative and add some tools to your arsenal to help get to them. It's one thing to be able to reach them, and something completely different to loosen/tighten them.
My wife's vehicle, 2014, had an additional ac hose that limited clearance. Still doable, but there were moments of frustration.
Again, thanks for the video walk through. I couldn't have done the job without this. Saved me a few $$
I like how you did it from the top in the video catering to the ppl who don’t have lifts showing a diff way and not taking apart the front bumper lol
My friend
Just to let you know
You’re good explaining the process , patience is the key for a job well done correctly !!
No recheck ....
My respect to you 👌
Today's date September 7 2021. Hands down the most helpful and thorough video for these years of Acadia's. Why this vid has 15 thumbs down, not a clue. Stop searching for a better video. Multiple High 5's to the TRQ team.
Edit; A couple of things to note. The Acadia I worked on had an extra line with insulation and a P strap mounted to the frame in front of the waterpump. It made the job a bit more difficult. This technician states the orientation of the waterpump. That is critical. A tip. Mark the old pump and block with a sharpy or something. Once you remove the old pump match it to the new pump and mark it . The bolts in the kit I used did not have the blank or start point as the OEM bolts do. That alone made the job miserable. If you don't have a torque wrench you can rent one from the auto parts store for free. They take a deposit but don't charge the card. Once you return it. They give all of it back. The dog bone shaped engine strut. When reinstalling put the small end in first. The one in the Acadia I worked on needed replacing. I do stand by my earlier comment. Hands down the best video for this job.
Awesome video. Just change out my water pump and this video made it so much easier than I thought
Excellent guide! Just used this to replace my sister in law’s water pump that failed in a spectacular fashion. Complete failure! Thank you for this video!
Yes this video did help me to get it done. My wife acadia has passed the test drive. Thank you.
This might be the best video I’ve ever seen on TH-cam. Sooooo easy to follow along with. A calming voice, easy to follow instructions. Just perfect. Made the task so much better. Thank you!
Would it be easier to access it from the bottom side?
Great video for those who do not have a garage or an easy way to get under the vehicle.
Good opportunity to replace the cam position sensors too!
You made installing the gasket and pump and tightening the bolts look so easy. (Not that easy!) thank you for the video!
Great video. Much more effort needed than the last one I helped replace on my old 71 Monte Carlo. My 2012 Acadia (150K miles) still has the original serpentine belt so I think it's definitely worth replacing it while in there seeing it's such a PIA to get to it. Thanks!
Nice of you to explain all of the processes needed to make this repair. Well done! Keep them coming!
Great walk through. From the breakdown of the to putting it back together in reverse. Made it very easy.
Your explanation and breakdown made it so easy for me to do this job with no issues whatsoever. Thank you so much! Very appreciated brother!
This was a really decent video. Probably the best DIY I've ever seen. Thank You very much, made my job enjoyable
Followed along and did it with a breeze. I’m not much of a mechanic either. Great diy video!
Great video thanks, Just did a 2008 enclave 3.6 was able to drop it out the bottom saved so much time, also did a starter to, directions say to remove the cat but I removed the motor mount next to the cat instead as I didn’t want to deal with breaking the exhaust studs, the top bolt on the motor motor was tricky to get to so I removed the oil filter which helped, worse motor I’ve ever worked on, I swear they make it as hard as possible so you take it in
This video saved me hundreds of dollars. Thank you sir. Step by step easy to follow video.
Great video. Thank you. I did have an AC line infront of the pump but i was able to move it a little. Great time to replace the belt but I had to remove wheel and wheel well to get access. With the wheel off I lowered my jack all the way down and it low enough to reach in easier. I also found a busted motor mount so inspect that once its removed.
thank you for this. man even watching the video it seems easier than the other videos. thank you for your time, headed to the garage with this info!
I want to give a big thanks to this man, great video! Thanks to you, I did my first water pump fairly! But this helped big time! Save me family money, thanks again!
My water pump needs replaced too. The garage estimate was $ 650.00. I will have to try this myself. Thanks for the vedio.
Nice job MR. thank you well explained may God bless you
Great job! You just saved me a bunch of money!! Thank You!
Wonderful Instructional video! Great job and thank you for providing these!!!!
Thanks buddy.. just saved me $400.. great video
Excellent video.
Now I can go and change my water pump and save a few hundred bucks.
Thanks.
How do we know if it’s a bad water pump vs a bad pulley? Awesome video by the way, great breakdown and straight to the point 👍🏼
The difference between this guy’s patience and yours, is that you need the car to be ready for tomorrow to go to work and if you are watching this video, most likely are finding out how complicated things are getting.
Thank you! Awesome video. This video saved me lots of money.
Thank you for the well detailed video it really help me a lot ,

Thank you for sharing. By far, one of the best detailed video.
Thank for the instructional video. The last one I did I pulled the fender well out and had to pull all the pulleys out of the way. It was a chore. And call me weird but I did like the fact the mechanic used several different brands of tools. Wasn’t all snap on or Marco. Even saw some good old craftsman in there. Doesn’t seem like a tool sponsored video. A lot like my toolbox. Always say doesn’t matter what brand it is just as long as it gets the job done. Yeah I notice dumb stuff like that
Hello. Thanks for making this video and it helps with understanding on how to get the job done. however, was there any difficulty with getting to the 10mm bold on the bottom of the water pump?
Muchas gracias por todos sus vídeos son todos bien profesionales🙏
Best video of my year. Thank you.

Muchas gracias me sirvio de mucho tu video....
wish I had watched this first, better than a lot of the other videos on this repair.
Thank you very much for this video
Thanks for making this a no brainier. Great job
Really nice guidence thankyou very much
Dude! Excellent video, thank you! I just subscribed!
Excellent thank you!
This guy knows what's up!
+Fabien Villezcas Thanks for watching our video! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ
That's the best way. With a JDMON water pump, I personally add permatex2. the gaskets are cheap.
I would like you to help me if you have the video on how to change the buster break of GMC Acadia 2007 it would be very helpful to me because I look and follow your videos they are very subtle they have helped me a lot
Great video thank you!!
Thank you man yo safe my life
Excellent excellent video. Thanks.
+MV Intrigue Thanks for watching our video! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ
Wish this guy did motorcycle repair videos
Awesome video thank you for sharing this
Thank you.
Super. Thank you so much.
good video thanks man
I just replaced it and as soon as I poured the coolant it started dripping. I couldn’t tell from where so I’ll have to disassemble everything again. Must be the gasket, I’m not sure. I didn’t have a torque wrench so I did it by hand. Any thoughts on what it could be?
Nice Job
local mechanic shop wanted $2000 is that normal? He stated it would take him 15 hours to do. Thanks for awesome video. Not sure if I can tackle it but well done.
Your the best!!
Has anyone used TRQ products before? Would axels and wheel hubs be a good purchase from them??
Lol, I took off the whole front bumper cover and headlight assembly, plus the inner fender liners and passenger wheel, to get it out. But I might take off these other parts like the fuse box to put it back in, that might make for a more secure replacement since I could get to it better.
Hello question my wife has a 2014 Denali Acadia the bulb seem to be burnt out so I replaced it that's not the case any suggestions I checked the fuses but they seem to be fine any other things I could do watching the video you just showed I'm wondering if I should disconnect the fuse housing and put it back on because a couple of months ago they had to replace the water pump wonder if it could be corroded or something thank you
Well done

I'm changing the water pump on a chevy traverse, the same engine, do I have to put silicone on the gasket? Thanks
I need help with my oil filter housing for my 2007 GMC Acadia and how do I access it and remove it thanks for your assistance
What did you do with metal gasket? Or did you only use the rubber on they gave you?
You think I can do this from the wheel if I remove the wheel and cover?
Thanks
why was the water pump changed?...was it leaking?, or did you have a different symptom? I have one in at the moment, everything has been changed but the radiator and water pump.
Question had some mechanic change my water pump he did it from under the car 😮 my antifreeze is orange and that's same day I had neon green fluid come out my car and now my AC don't work turns out the green stuff is ac refrigerant was this caused by him changing the water pump
Do you have to support the engine to remove that motor Mount?
10 minutes is a rough estimate. Hold the idle around 1500 to both speed it up and to actually get the engine to circulate the coolant and help push the air out. Leave the cap off and have the heat on high after its up to operating temp shut it off a minute or 2. Then top off coolant. Then repeat it again. after a couple start stops it'll burp it all up generally.
+Dylan Dubs Thanks for watching our video! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ
I Follow everything until Taking the belt off, I Have NO Idea how you "loosened the belt". Now I'm stuck.... Probably not your fault, but I Have no Idea what you Did there
Did you jack under to hold motor?
Just read on the Acadia forum said to tighten to 89in lbs 2 passes and then an additional 45 degrees?!? So this might explain why I found a stripped thread in the block
Once I put the pulley back on, the pump would not turn. Is this correct?
The repair manual calls for sealant on one side of the gasket but I guess it's not needed?
is the water pump internal or external
the bolts only get torqued to 8 ftlbs?
I have a 2015 acadia, and when I got down to the water pump, there was an ac line right in the way. It's different from the one in your video. Any ideas on what I should do?
you can bend the brackets back easily enough by hand and give yourself just enough room to do the job. Just did one today.
also get the bottom bolts of the pump from underneath with the tire off, much easier. When you get the belt back on push the tensioner harder to put more resistance on the pully of the pump so you can get those bolts nice and tight on the pulley.
@trq did you use 4 new water pump PULLY bolts? Is it necessary? If so, where do you get these? Thanks man!
Hello, he states in the video that the bolts come with the water pump. Apparently according to at least one forum the bolts are one time use????? No matter this guy is replacing the bolts so am I. Have a great day.
No need for RTV?
Do I need gasket sealer?
I'm replacing the water pump on my Acadia tomorrow.
+gman13glpz A gasket will be needed for this assembly.
@@TRQ yes sir, I have the gasket I was just asking if I should apply silicon sealer paste to the gasket.
They told me that at the auto parts store when I bought the pump.
Thank you for uploading this procedure.
The videos that I found, they remove the tire and have little view of what they're doing.
I can see everything on your video.
+gman13glpz It may help to hold the gasket in place during install, but it's not required. Thanks for watching our video! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ
@@TRQ thank you
Impressive,no bull shit.
funny, the guy sounds like the dude from 1A Auto videos.
No RTV???
👍👍👍👍
What a night mare it is to get to the Water pump , could you not get to it from the Fender on the Tire from
the outside ?
You dont ever show the worst part .. like hiw tf you get to the down bolts...
that video convinces me not to buy gm prodcuts
Wait till you work on Toyota
In my experience, Honda is the most DIY friendly brand there is
Shop just charged my daughters car warranty $1100 to change this same water pump .
This video isn’t up to your normal standards/quality without all the torque specs. Also, the outlet tube GASKETS mounted to the engine block with the two 10mm screws right ABOVE the water pump is an EASY fix while you are doing this job & should be replaced. Why do it again.
This vehicle is by far the worse to repair that I have owned. My water pump doesn't need replacing but I wanted to see how it's done for future references.
+Two Toned Thanks for watching our video! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ
Good video but you don't have to take off all the things he did. Just lift up your car take off the passenger wheel and the plastic cover that's there and then the belt and bam take off the water pump. This video is dumb
