Vectra 2.0 di fuel pump how much?
Just got home from work this evening and had a call from the local garage saying that the car needs a new fuel pump and incuding labour thats going to come to 950 quid
had a look on the net and cant seem to find a price for one, but 800 quid surely he is yanking my chain here? the car is only worth 1k tops.

Sounds right im affraid for a stealer, Ive got a CDX estate sat outside for that exact reason, not many garages even know what there doing with these Pumps so make sure garage is a Bosch diesel pump expert,
The Derv Doctor does recons with 12month warrenty for about 600 inc vat,
as the post above its a High and low pressure pump as is sucks the fuel from your tank then ditributes(sp), a Bosch dealer may be able to repair.

You, entering shop "Good morning sir, I really need a fuel pump for a Vectra 2.0 di"
Shop Assistant "Hmm, make it £500 on top and you've got yourself a swap!"
(the old ones are the best!)

The fuel injection pump on my daughters 2.0 DI Astra failed recently. Vauxhall dealer quoted 2,600 notes! Do you want to go ahead sir? Not bl**dy likely. That's more than the car's worth.
Anyway got a reconditioned one with 1 year warranty from Diesel Bob for 599 notes.

So your local garage aren't ripping you off. Changing the pump is a bit of b*ggar, so the labour costs will be high.

Car only cost me just under a grand, and I have just spent over 1200 on the scoob , so I wont be paying that, looks like the best option is the car auctions and let some sucker take it off my hands
been sat on the drive for 2 weeks atm have not got time for it.
