G60 PAS pump reconditioning

[Andy T 0]

VW quoted me over £300 for a G60 steering pump! (and thats exchange as well)

 

Being different from 2.0l, 16v & 8v/Gti pumps, GSF & Euro Car Parts don't sell them (as mentioned in other threads on here) nor does AVS.

 

I've found a company in Bristol that re-conditions steering racks & pumps on an exchange basis, or they can refurb your actual item if you prefer.

 

They've quoted me £95+Vat + £10 delivery for a recon G60 pas pump, which is not too bad compared to the stealer!

 

They've asked for a pic of the pump so they can be 100% about the pulley spacing/inlet position etc.

That's a good price really, the G60 pump is very similar to the others, just the feed pipe is a different angle I think, this is just an interference fit, so in theory you could fit a 16v pump to a g60 if you can swap the feed connection part over.

 

I've also noticed that 1.4 pug 306's have the same pump!

Yeah good point, the only other thing is that pulley spacing is longer due to the Flat ribbed belt pulley that drives the charger/alternator etc.
