	Ok, I have a 53 plate corsa 1.0 12v Yesterday in Hull (90 miles away) it started over heating and no hot air was comming out the blowers. Pulled over and had a look, pipe had come off the top of the water pump (small one that goes over the engine towards the back) Found that a small plastic pipe about 2 inches long had snapped off, one end threaded into the pump, the other end smooth Went to Vauxhall to get a new part, but they dont stock them. Been replaced with a metal peice instead, cool I thought - wont happene again BUT the parts guy said the £2.87 metal part will not fit as its slightly bigger, and I now need a new water pump and gasket to fit the clip. So a £2,87 replacement part will cost almost £100 in parts and god knows what for labour Any other way around this? Not replacing a perfect water pump with a new one for just this Thanks [Edited on 15-03-2008 by M2RTY]
