Mine has done 61k and after doing some digging it would seem the water pump needs changing around this mileage.. anybody know the damage for a cambelt & pump fitted on these? I know the price of my 2.0t Veccy chain used to make me cry..

Not sure it's the water pump in the vid as it's difficult to hear anything really..
The water pump will normally make a chuff chuff noise like a little steam train in cold or damp conditions...easy to tell if it's the pump or the aux belt by spraying a little wd40 onto the aux belt with the engine running..if noise goes away then its the aux belt or tensioner..
Vauxhall are well aware as there is a TSB on the water pump making a chuff noise..

Well what a surprise!, they started the car this morning while covered in frost & nothing! No noise just normal running! This is so frustrating!!
They have suggested a change of all belts and tensioner's (due to mileage 61k) however they want £520 to do it... they can keep dreaming. I may do the belts myself.
One thing of note - On Friday it did it and I was armed with a bottle of water (no WD40 handy) and once I poured it on the aux belt the tone of the noise changed. It didn't go away but it defo effected the noise2013 Insignia 2.0 CDTi SRi NAV

They called me back and want me to take it in for an Aux belt under warranty! I wont complain!
Just a thought - How about everybody with this issue upload a video so we can compare the noise? I'm going to make a better one2013 Insignia 2.0 CDTi SRi NAV
