Easiest Waterpump I've ever changed!
Title says it all. It's a snap on the C5 all I needed was screwdriver, pliers, 8mm, 10mm, 15mm socket, and one funnel for the coolant. 30 minutes off, 1.5 hours back on,I screwed off cleaning up and playing with the shop radio. Started it up, let it burp, checked for leaks, replenished the coolant.
What a blast to do! I wouldn't be so cheerful if I still worked at the dealership way back when....but back then you'd have to turn the car up-side down and stack all the engine brackets and belts in the middle of the shop, then spend the next day putting the puzzle back together.

Good to know that it wasn't that bad of a repair. Some day I may have to do it to mine.
