Water pump drive gear: Are these cracks an issue?

**Sun Apr 27, 2014 9:49 am » Post: #1 » Download Post**

I noticed that the plastic gear wheel on the pump drive shaft has cracks.
Is this going to cause problems or will this hold another 50,000 km?

Anyone got experience?

Very common. Almost all we take off look like that.

Thanks, Andy.
Do you replace the driving shafts?
