RS2 Hydraulic Pump

[Lloyd]

I would like to get my hydraulic pump serviced.

Does anyone have any suggestions on service centres that can help?
Where are the best places to get one from (apart from Audi/TPS).

I've left a message with Pete from Quattro Corner, hopefully he can help.

Any other options? Thanks.

you mean brake pump or steering pump?

[Lloyd]

Ah, I didn't realise there were two

It's the one located at the top right hand side of the block, looking from the front.

Vas is confusing you. The same pump does both - hence the name tandem pump
I think Pete can get hold of ZF rebuilt pumps on exchange, same as the dealer. There are plenty of places that say they rebuild pumps, most of them just replace the seals. The shaft bearing and shims are what wear on these pumps in my experience though

That sounds ideal.

so steering pump then! (as the brake servo is a pump and hydraulic as well! )

yes, i had one checked recently at http://www.steering-racks.co.uk/

top response and im sending them a rack to be serviced as well.

nope its a servo

Yes Kiley Clinton are a pretty well respected firm, never used them myself mind.

[A80Avant]

its lost in translation but the greek equivalent is pump instead of servo!

Kiley did a check on a pump for me for 20GBP and their service was very good. Im sending them a rack that 4wheeldrifter had rebuilt for me but apparently something went wrong and leaked everywhere, so we will find out soon if there was a problem with seals at the time.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've just called them and they need just 3 hours to fully strip and service the pump. £123+VAT Next day service = result

Let us know how you get on please? I have made this "sticky" as it could be useful...

Cheers,

[Bowlerwell]

Yep, I'll be watching this one with interest... especially since I found my pump leaking a couple of days ago...

yeah Quattro corner has recon ones on the shelf.

I couldn't reach Pete at Quattro Corner so sent the unit for refurbishment.

[Lloyd]

http://www.steering-racks.co.uk/ received my pump earlier today. It's since been stripped, serviced, re-painted and dispatched all in one day. Awesome!

[Lloyd]

Received the 'new' pump today.

Ask for Roger at Kiley-Clinton, first class professional service.

The new paint job will match up nicely to the powder coated pulley
