Hey all,

Just joined the forum. And I need assistance from you wonderful people.

I have a 2006 Mini Cooper S. Supercharger and all. Bone stock. I am currently replacing (or at least attempting to..) my water pump, but ~12 hours in, I've hit a brick wall. I've searched far and wide for info for a DIY water pump replacement, but have found nothing. I have the whole front off, and the bolts out of the pump, but can not get it separated from the SC. I don't know if I need to take the whole intake manifold off, or what.. But any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks all,

ML
