I've been getting the occasional flicker of the oil light with hot oil, hardish braking, and low oil levels (I'm leaking at the front and rear crank seal), and I thought I should invest in a new oil pump whilst I do a oil and filter change in two weeks time. My TR6 oil pump was £50, so 'how bad could it be?'
It varies from £300+ for the RTC2554 as per the parts book, to £60 for the ERR1117 'quality aftermarket'.
My policy which has kept my Series 3 on the road for the past 15 years has been to 'replace rather than repair' but I'd rather know if there are any significant differences between the two, given that they don't seem to have any commonality with the part number.
Anyone know? RTC2554 vs ERR1117. Comments about Britpart, Lucas, OEM, etc quality notwithstanding.
