85000486 Volvo FH FH16 Water Pump

What does a water pump do?

This water pump plays a critical role in the engine cooling system by circulating coolant between the engine block and the radiator. Built with high-strength components, it is designed to withstand the high temperatures and vibrations common in heavy-duty commercial vehicle engines. Maintaining consistent coolant flow is essential to prevent overheating and ensure long-term engine reliability.

Compatible Volvo trucks and engines

This component is specifically fitted to Volvo trucks, including the FH series (models 400, 440, 480, 500, and 520) and the FH16 models equipped with D16K engines. It serves as a reliable replacement for original equipment parts in these specific heavy commercial vehicle applications.

Installation and maintenance guidance

To ensure proper installation, technicians should inspect the drive belt and cooling system seals during replacement. It is recommended to check for signs of leakage from the weep hole or unusual bearing noise as part of routine maintenance intervals. Proper fitment ensures the engine maintains its ideal operating temperature during long-haul operations.

Selection and troubleshooting

When selecting a replacement, verify compatibility using the engine code to avoid flange or diameter mismatches. For technical assistance regarding specific fitment for your fleet, consult your authorized distributor.
