The pump is ran off the aux belt on these isn't it? Shouldn't have to touch the timing chain.

Might have to remove engine mount to get into the tensioner though.

Shouldn't be too difficult.

Pretty sure you'd have to take the belt off itself and tensioner ect.. Might aswell change them aswell while your at it if that is the case.

Whats the process in changing the water pump in a corsa c? Ive been reading that only the timing belt cover needs to come off and that the belt and timing wont be disturbed, is that correct? What other parts will I need to remove in order to get the pump off? Is anything other than the pump and gasket that should be replaced at the same time? Thanks.
