Q: Yeah I have a 2001 Seville SLS I've been told it needs a water pump thermostat and upper hose what would that cost

asked by on December 13, 2016

I've been told I need a water pump thermostat and upper hose 2001 Cadillac Seville SLS I was wondering what the price would be installed everything. I was driving this morning about a mile and light came on that said it was going to shut off the AC because the car was too hot. It was almost in the red. I took it to the closest shop and let's just say I don't think they have my best interest in mind. I would love a quote. They did not disassemble anything so I'm just curious how they would tell if the water pump is not working. Thank you for your help Jon
