My father who has worked on cars all his life is getting up there in years so he can't tell if my leak is a hose or the waterpump itself in my 2004 Dodge Grand Caravan. It has 96,000 miles on it and it's been leaking for a couple of months. At first I thought it was just low so I put antifreeze in it and then needed to do it again 3 weeks later because the guage was heading towards H.....An alarm went off so I stopped and let it sit awhile before getting home.

My father would like to know how do you change the waterpump on it? He wants to know if there is a side panel in the wheel well to get at it or does he have to take everything off that's in his way that he sees? Can someone write down the steps to changing the waterpump? Cause doesn't Chrysler charge atleast $500?
