Changing out a water pump for a 95 BMW M3, is it a pain?

I checked the clutch fan and it has a wobble to it. Past experience makes me think its a water pump about to go. I hope this is the last question I post about this vehicle!!

they are a piece of cake.

slight wobble is ok if coming from fan. if pulley is moving then replace water pump.

removed fan, and shield. then remove the serp belt. then remove pulley. remove the 4 nuts holding water pump. pull out. if stubborn then there is 2 threaded holes to insert bolts in and drive it out. (the t-stat bolts work perfect for that). 3

good luck
