I'd have it checked and then get a quote just to make sure it is the pump!!! I'd also price one up from a scappy as there should be loads around for your model.

Sheeeet

that sounds expensive. Has it just gone all of a sudden with no warning or were there any strange noises etc prior to it going kaput? I notice you have had some engine management lights come of before, Im guessing this is all down to the pump failure?

No warning or noises , the engine management light came on but didn't register a fault.

Have sent details to get a secondhand pump off Breaker link fingers crossed . Apparently there like rocking horse poo

If i don't get a reply its off to the Bosch specialist for a refurb or a new pump

Seems to be a bad habit for HDI pumps. You're defo not the first to face this lemon ...

And yes they fail w/o warning. Engine simply dies for good because of missing fuel.
