Cooling System Experts

Coolant Leaks, Water Pumps & Thermostats

Driving a high-performance European vehicle like a Porsche, BMW, or Land Rover requires an engine that operates at the perfect temperature. At S & K, we specialize in maintaining complex cooling systems. The most common sign of trouble is a coolant leak.

The water pump is the heart of your cooling system. In many European cars, plastic impellers can crack over time, leading to sudden coolant leaks or circulation failure. We specialize in water pump replacement, often upgrading to metal-impeller parts for better durability. A failed water pump can warp a cylinder head in minutes, so we emphasize getting this done right.

Working with the water pump is the thermostat. If a thermostat fails or a housing cracks, it often results in a coolant leak or an overheating engine. We perform thorough thermostat replacements, including the housing and gasket—common sources for leaks. We often find that a slow leak is actually a hairline crack in the thermostat housing. We also recommend complete coolant flushes to prevent corrosion. We explain the process clearly and get you back on the road knowing your car can handle the heat.
