Daz1986 Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 Hello ladies and gents. Well I am am thinking of getting a defender 90, I know the pas pump behing the pullie is leaking!!!

bluesj Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 Hi depending on what 90 it is a new pump would be £150 is plus fitting, but not hard to fit your self. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countryman Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 Have a really good look underneath as well, chances are that wont be its only oil leak, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson_tom Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 I changed the one on my 300tdi disco and was quite an easy job, i reckon a garage will charge about an 1 or 2 hours labour. If your gonna do it yourself put some cardboard down or something as the fluid seems to go everywhere. The pump i bought second hand for £30.

Seems it's just a slight leak from the pump so will get it and have a tinker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fib new Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 But if a leaky pas-pump scares you, you might want to re-think about buying something with a green oval...😜 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ditchman Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 if you are strapped for cash ...get a re-build pas kit for it...its only a tenner or so.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russian sniper Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 If you can't fix it straight away put a cap of brake fluid in the pas reservoir and it will swell the seals slightly and allow you time to fix it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
