Under bonnet pump question

Madderz · 23rd February 2020, 15:00

My ubp started to play up yesterday. Gave it a little jiggle and it buzzed back into life (thankfully as I was 150 miles from home lol)

Are these an easily obtainable part?
My local garage are going to have to change it as I've not got the time with work etc, so I was hoping he'd just be able to order one from his local supplier. Keeps warranties simpler if you get my drift.

Sorry to mumble on

These are readily available, don't be tempted to fit any old brand go for the best quality i.e a Piersburg one make sure is a genuine one made in Germany these are the best , expensive and very quiet.
How is your in-tank pump, make sure it is working well, never let fuel level drop below 1/4 tank full, and add Millers Diesel additive to fuel for lubrication of all fuel system and increased performance.

Hi Tony.
As above only fit a pierburg pump they last and are silent, you could always contact Mickyboy he may have a good used one, which I would prefer to fit rather than any aftermarket pump, but if you can go to the expense of a new one link below.
