Sure Dave,the front shot of the pump showing pulley to housing space and pulley to shaft relationship.The pulley should be flush with the end of the shaft.Depending on howGreg proceeds with his case,the only way to check migration of cartridge is to press off impellor and pulley.Either way this just plain sucks!!Fear not help is on the way and almost here.

Given that you did not own the car when the work was performed you were not a part of the original contract or warranty it would seem to me that you have no recourse against the dealer. My guess is you bought the used car AS IS from a private party. You might also wish to check the laws on slander/libel there have been recent court cases where what is stated on the internet has been used against people with large damage settlements !

Like I said, the Porsche guys installed it, but they didn't rebuilt it. The guy that rebuilt it is the one that you need to be yelling at. After seeing Mark Anderson's communications with him, I don't think he cares.

A Tribute to Rusnak Automotive Group

A TRIBUTE TO RUSNAK AUTOMOTIVE GROUP
Wednesday, April 26, 2006
Mr. SCHIFF. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Rusnak Automotive Group in celebrating 40 years as a premiere automotive dealer in Southern California. Paul Rusnak opened his first location in 1959 because he saw the beginning of a fascination with European sports cars.
Over the years, his business grew to include more than 25 different automotive brands, both domestic and European. From Culver City to Pasadena, Rusnak Automotive Group has centered its market in convenient locations for our community members.
A short distance from Art Center College of Design, where many automotive designers are inspired, is the intersection of Orange Grove and Colorado Boulevard in Pasadena, California. This location is where Rusnak showcases cars such as Jaguar, Porsche, Audi, Rolls-Royce, and Bentley in historic buildings that have served as automotive dealerships since the turn of the century. The famous Walter M. Murphy Motors and Murphy Co. Coachworks of Duisenberg fame was housed where Rusnak now displays Porsches. Also, the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics has designated the Rolls-Royce dealership as one of the nation's historic aerospace sites--it was the first plant for Aerojet Engineering Corporation, which was the site of the invention of rocket fuel.
The largest automotive mall in the world houses Rusnak/Westlake and BMW, Porsche, and Audi dealerships. Rusnak Automotive Group has received many awards over the years including the first J.D. Powers "Customer Approved Retailer.'' But--the best awards have come from the many repeat customers who have made Rusnak the number one volume Audi dealer in the Western United States and the fastest growing Mercedes-Benz dealer in Southern California. Looking to the future, Rusnak now has a new BMW dealership on the 101 Freeway in Thousand Oaks, California.
Mr. Paul Rusnak, his daughter, Liz Rusnak Arizmendi, Vice President Public Relations, and Rusnak Automotive Group are generous supporters of many local charitable organizations, including Childrens Hospital Los Angeles, Make a Wish of Greater Los Angeles, the Pasadena POPS Orchestra, the AIDS Service Center of Los Angeles, Hillsides, Methodist Hospital Foundation, the American Red Cross and the Ronald McDonald House of Pasadena.
It is my distinct honor to recognize the contributions of Rusnak Automotive Group. I ask all members to join me in congratulating Paul Rusnak and his staff for celebrating 40 years of contributions to the community and automotive industry" ........................... Yea I think I would want to try to screw around with him !

I know for a fact every roller, tensioner, water pump, and timing belt was replaced less than 10,000 miles before this happened. The water pump started to seize (it was still spinning, with additional friction) and caused this to happen:

We now need several pages of "I'm OUTRAGED" posters, just to make the point that righteous indignation is a true form of stand up comedy........
The car is not destroyed.. it can be fixed. **** happens and as a "spectator" you have no actionable cause. Acting like a jackass will not improve your legal standing but will certainly season your reputation.
Fix the car, live long and prosper.

Im cool with that.
Like I said before, the car will be OK.
I will never trust a dealer again!
Buy stock in "GOOP" dealers must use tons of it!

How much force do you think it takes to spin the impeller against the block?
Nothing is pushing it against the block is it?
Frying the belt is heat from slipping after something locks up the pump or the belt gets loose.

Interesting how this was caught whilst it was happening, I think.
Notice how the belt is just fine in the top of the picture. Then it goes past the pulley and 1/2 the belt is sushied.
