That's unusual, as normally they just weep slowly, like mine has been doing for 12 months.
If you need a hand, or want to borrow my pulley retainer tool, then let me know.
That's not a good advert for whoever supplied it. 3 years for a part that should last 150K miles is bad.
Just use the correct scrivet, or a fir-tree panel retainer, in the hole provided.
One of mine went missing oft road. For me tie wraps are stronger and won't come oft if you use new holes at the side. Mine was ripped out previously.Just use the correct scrivet, or a fir-tree panel retainer, in the hole provided.
That's kind John but I'm going to leave this one to the garage, and I'll probably call on you for the water pump and stat at some point so don't want to take the p155. I'm already resigned to a few hundred quid going on the credit card in the next few days.If you need a hand, or want to borrow my pulley retainer tool, then let me know.
Indeed! I've just found the garage receipt. Paid £554.40 on 06/05/2016. The pump itself was £372. Do peeps think I have any recourse? I guess not as it's three years and one month ago. If so though, I might enquire who the supplier was at least just to help other folks out on avoiding poor parts.That's not a good advert for whoever supplied it. 3 years for a part that should last 150K miles is bad.
Probably not unfortunately. It's been 3 years.
I've had a cursory look around at prices but haven't seen anything that cheap. Could you point me in the direction of a supplier?
I thought as much.
Look better indeed.
Does it have to be manual? My ex brought a dirt cheap 12 volt thing (connects to car battery) from argos, had it years and it's still going strong.
Needed one that I could use without power for motorcycles and large inflatable women. And need some exercise. And don’t get out much.I use an electric tyre pump, as it takes far to long, pumping my 18" tyres with the foot pump.
