ray_vr6 1 Posted July 1, 2012 Hi Looks like I need a new oil pump for my 1990 16v - would prefer VW OE but as my nearest dealer is 200 miles away I rely on mail order quite a bit! I have found a Febi unit from http://www.germanautopartsdirect.co.uk/shopping_cart.php?page=6 and that appears to be a very reasonable price but doeasanyone have any experience or thoughts on Febi parts? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wormy 0 Posted July 2, 2012 I have a Febi oil pump in my G60, and it's been all good so far. Though only driven 20'000-ish km... :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ray_vr6 1 Posted July 2, 2012 Just called tps in Edinburgh for a price comparison and it would appear that oil pumps for my car are obsolete! So febi it is - thanks wormy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ray_vr6 1 Posted July 11, 2012 Well it appears febi no longer make one for my early 16v either so if anyone has any thoughts on GSF or ECP (probably the same item!) pump I would be grateful. Many Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ray_vr6 1 Posted July 16, 2012 Seems there is a difference - certainly in price between the two (GSF £46 - ECP £63) - anyone got any info on the quality of either? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Timbo 0 Posted July 16, 2012 If you are actually in Edinburgh there is a parts desk at the Western VW in Gorgie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ray_vr6 1 Posted July 16, 2012 Hi - I'm not living in Edinburgh at the moment (250 miles away in Skye!) - I contacted VW (TPS) in Sighthill and they say that the oil pump for early 16v corrado is obselete - hence my efforts to source the next best option.

beastie4126 0 Posted July 16, 2012 Are we talking KR 16v ? If so one of these should fit the bill shouldn't it - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-GOLF-MK2-GTI-16V-SCIROCCO-OIL-PUMP-C756-/190643806356?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2c6341a094 use these guys a lot for spares and they are very good Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ray_vr6 1 Posted July 16, 2012 Thanks - I have used them as well so will contact them to ensure fit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ray_vr6 1 Posted July 17, 2012 Nope - seems it will not fit. Think I will go for ECP part - although its more expensive it is German made. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
