I have the same issue with my 01S; previous owner believed engine had IMS issue but turned out to my luck only being the water pump and the vain(s) lost…… car has sat since changed pump, 73,000 and change for miles…… have driven it maybe 5 miles and have not gotten around to “chasing” those elusive bits….. have searched posts too…. And have spoken to specialists in San Rafael…. They said they don’t bother chasing those bits either as “who’s going to pay for all that work for a car that does not have the value making it worth it for them”….. so they say change the pump and t-stat and move on….. no issues of customers returning to squawk they say……. Plan to doing all the things stated in this post but do believe / kind figure for piece of mind will attempt!!! Funny as the oil cooler is either the easiest place to ck or is most common to find any of those bits……. Happy to hear other experiences!!! If I could post from my phone have some great water pump pics……
