Noisy hydraulic pump!

Post by aerodynamica »

The HP pump on the 1.9TD Xantia is VERY noisy! The car hydraulic circuit pressurises and operates properly with the red light going out promptly after start up - new accumulator fitted and new LHM and filters on Sat morning before CXM & Xant rally. All good but it makes some noise. I think the bearings are beginning to go.

CitroJim was going to offer the 2 pipe Mk1 pump he had but it is from a petrol and uses a bigger pulley. I am hoping to source a replacement single output HP pump for a 1.9 TD, it is of course, a 'sinking' car.

If anyone knows of one available I'd be happy to hear!

It did sound a little bit worn :lol:
There was a single output pump on a sinker in my local scrap yard i would be happy to remove and get posted if you get really stuck.

Cheers Dean - might just take you up on that! Any idea (daft question) if the one in the scrappy is good? Might also want the Diesel pump off it too.
