5 best pump companies for Lada Vesta

For more than 15 years, the products of JSC "Management of Small Mechanization" have been supplying consumables and components to the VAZ automobile plant. Since 2007, it has been producing pumps for the engine cooling system for front-wheel drive VAZ cars. According to the owners, the original pumps are reliable and productive. They have a high-quality assembly - if you choose them, you can count on a large mileage. But some car owners do not like that the UMM pumps for Lada Vesta 1.8 have a plastic impeller. On the one hand, it weighs less and facilitates the operation of the engine, on the other hand, the high temperatures of antifreeze deform the plastic impeller blades over time. And this reduces the efficiency of the pump as a whole. In addition, blades that are worn out over time can come off the stem and begin to scroll.
