just a quick post i've currently got a 95 c280 elegance thats leaking badly from the waterpump so i'm assuming the seal has gone in it as there is plenty of heat coming into the car and the temperature never go's into the red so far i've removed the hoses and rad out of the way and removed the serpentine belt but can't seem to get the water pump off whats the easiest way of doing it as my next step is going to be removing the inlet manifold for better access
