Hi
No, it is very easy.
If You have Aircondition, You have to take the compressor away and also the
bracket for the compressor, without disassembly of the pipes.
Then it is just to take out the three screws and carefully bend the old
waterpump away from the engineblock.
Clean up the surfaces, check the o-rings on the adapter/replace if
necessary.
Then it is just to reassembly with the new waterpump.
Regards Frank
