Seems prices go between $900-$1500, and you get what you pay for. My buddy opted for a new pump directly from Bosch when he had to do his. Cost him more, but he knows its new, and not a cheap rebuild. I think it cost him $1600 for the pump alone.

Thanks, I guess i need to start saving up for the big job. Going to drive it till it dies. I guess I can't complain since I got 250,000 out of it. You guys have been great

good luck.


FYI, there are a series of vids on youtube by a guy named Diesel Dan that shows step by step how to replace the pump.

I have 212K on truck now.Any help would be appreciated.Please Help i cant afford a VP right now!
