Anybody know an easy way for a novice to change a water pump on m-reg renault laguna. Thanks?

I've changed my rad and thermostat, thermo switch and my car is still overheating. I think it must be the water pump. Any other ideas, please let me know. I have bled the system.

You need the Haynes workshop guide for that model.
Welcome
i recommend purchasing a Haynes manual very easy to follow.
Don't.
Find out if your fluid level is dropping first. either pressure test it or get a dry piece of cardboard and run the car over the top of it. If the bearing is bad in the water pump you should see a release of fluid. Make sure it's the problem before attempting the repair.Then purchase the repair manual for your model. If you can change the radiator you shouldn't have any trouble w/ pump.I'd check to see if all your hoses are secure after doing the radiator, maybe that's the trouble
Auto Zone has a Haynes manual for$20 or take a look at a Chilton's at the public library for free.
on an m reg laguna id say head gasket, but as i cant see the car i'll just advise against the water pump job, as im sure the timing belt needs to come off and these cars have little or no timing marks.
is there a lot of pressure when you take the cap of the expansion tank?
