THE RODA WAY
Our Water Pump Replacement service restores proper coolant flow and protects your engine from serious heat-related damage. We believe in hospitality and transparency — you’ll always know exactly what we’re doing and why it matters.
Why Estimates May Vary
$495 - $1350 with RodaCare
$550 - $1,500
Our goal is full transparency — pricing and timing may change slightly based on:
- Vehicle make and engine design (some pumps are belt-driven and more labor-intensive)
- Timing components (if the pump is driven by the timing belt, additional parts and labor may be required)
- Coolant type and gasket materials (OEM vs. aftermarket replacements)
We’ll always provide an exact quote after inspection — no surprises, ever.
