Few months ago noticed a loss of coolant from the water pump as it fits in the block. I’ve changed the o ring and after a while it leaked again. Second time change of o ring again after some leaked again. Now third time bought new pump, new o ring fitted and in a week boom again leaking.
Yes I have cleaned the mating surfaces. The only thing I haven’t done is tight the bolts to 10nm as per manual. Not super tight but also not 10.
Any help please?

Are you sure its the pump, It could be the top hose abobe in the center of the engine, if that leaks it tracks down to the pump making it look like the pump is leaking.
