Apparently it was an “auxiliary water pump.” My 2001 Saturn
has two pumps. I never knew any car had two water pumps. But apparently some
BMWs do, also.
Of course, everyone knows Saturn doesn’t exist now, but a
local Chevy dealer here covers their parts and things. Normally. This
particular part has been discontinued, and the dealer said other parts are
quickly being discontinued as well. I sat there watching my guy call all the
other places he could think of and nobody had one. He finally found a place
that will special order it and we should have it Wednesday, and hopefully
install it Thursday.
This is the first time my guy has ever mentioned that it might
be time to think about a different car because good as he is, he can’t fix
something if the part is not available.
On the plus side, I took it in right away and know what is
wrong...if I had ignored it, I could have had problems while out on errands or
something.
Lots to think about tonight...so that’s it for now.
