Airtex Water Pumps Engine Water Pump P/N:AW4078
Keep coolant moving between the engine and radiator with the Airtex Water Pump AW6215, a new, timing-belt-driven pump built with all-new components of original equipment quality for proper fit and long-life performance. It fits many vehicles with the V6-2.7L engine, among them the 2006-2010 Kia Optima, 2007-2009 Hyundai Santa Fe and 2007-2012 Kia Rondo. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
The timing belt spins the pump, and its impeller circulates coolant so engine heat can be carried to the radiator. Coolant seeping from the pump, a growling or whining noise, or a rising temperature gauge are signs the pump may need replacing. Diagnose the cause before you replace it. The listed applications use one pump. Country of origin: Mexico.
