[Vwdiesel] Injection pump problems---VW Rabbit 1980 ---and 1982-.

[Gary, Orlando]

CDN$5000 for a pump? What kind of crack are they smoking?
They must be quoting for a brand new pump.  Then CDN$5000 is a dealer
price and is actually about right.( That is, if you believe stealer
prices are good... Ha!)

This site,
https://webinsi5.securesites.com/vwdiesel/ordform.htm (no affiliation)
has rebuilt NA pumps for USD$395, Turbo for $495.

There are other sites that offer rebuilds, just shop around.

Have you checked with a local Bosch repair shop? Look up under trucking
repairs in the phone directory and then look for the Bosch symbol. Most
larger cities have a Bosch authorized work shop. The one I used in San
Diego had great prices and service.


Good Luck,
-Gary, Orlando
