max west-yorks 10 Posted August 9, 2012 as title my pulley has started to go and it's grinding/rattling due to the slack anyone got a good condition pump? thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted August 9, 2012 They were only something like 30-40 quid from the dealers last time I got one. At that price, I wouldn't chance a s/hand one personally. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
max west-yorks 10 Posted August 9, 2012 I didn't realise they were still available I thought they were long gone since they're out of stock on vwspares! I'll give my local a ring thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
max west-yorks 10 Posted August 9, 2012 £100 from VW the local place reckon, no thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VAG-hag 0 Posted August 9, 2012 did that price include an exchange on it? I got a new VAG one recently for something like £70/ £80 & got 35 quid back when I returned my old one. Ive read loads of threads about non gen items being made of sugar puffs or similar so I took the OEM route..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted August 9, 2012 £100!! Kinell they've gone up. Sure you're talking about the mechanical pump? The little electric one is £100 odd for sure. As for pattern ones, I used a GSF one made by "Airtec" or something and it was absolutely fine for over over 50K miles.... and it was something like £26+VAT ---------- Post added at 3:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 3:16 PM ---------- Also, see what the price for 24V / R32 pumps are as they will fit the VR6. Might be cheaper being a new car and all that Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
