Hydraulic Pump Needed
Hydraulic Pump Needed
A recent inspection has revealed my BX's HP pump has begun to leak substantially. Garage can order one for something like £250 but obviously that is a lot! If anyone has a spare they would be prepared to sell or knows where to get one for less I would very much appreciate the help else I will have to go with the expensive one.

Re: Hydraulic Pump Needed
Diesel. I didn't know the pump was different dependant on engine. In terms of refurbishing, where would I go to have this done?

Its a 1.7 'TXD Turbo' (As in Boxwolf's Signature)rutter123 wrote:Which model bx petrol or diesel? H/p pumps can be refurbed for around £130.
The only one available on E-bay is from AEP (Below) but at least its NEW, O/E ones for Diesels are now on Citroen's 'NFP' lists !

IIRC didn't 'Bob' (Linegeist) have problems with the re-furbed ones from 'Pleiades' ?MULLEY wrote:Is it Pleiades ?
LINK#1, LINK#2 and LINK#3 (For ref.) !
Boxwolf, I possibly may have a used one in GWO (But need to check first) I'll give you a call tomorrow

Re: Hydraulic Pump Needed
I have got one you can have. It has got a slight shaft leak but is useable. Or you could have it reconned by Pleiades.
The Joy of BX with just one Citroën BX to my name now. Will I sing Bye Bye to my GTI or will it be Till death us do part.

Re: Hydraulic Pump Needed
I think if you are aiming to keep the car a recon one is worth while. If its lasted 20+ years and 100+ thousand miles it should when reconditioned outlast the rest of the car!
Lots of Motors, mostly semi broken....
Re: Hydraulic Pump Needed
So how would I get a recon one? I can't exactly have the current one removed to be refurbished as then I would have no transport. I'm also not all that keen on getting a recon one which then causes problems. If nobody has a good working one I'll have to go with the one from the garage which will be burning a bit of a hole in my wallet (sorry Jaba but I would be apprehensive of fitting one with any kind of leak as a replacement, thanks anyway though!)
RxBx, if the one you have is in good shape (and you do still have it) let me know on here - I won't be at home from lunchtime until thursday night and I need to contact the garage on thurs/fri to let them know whether to order the new pump.
As I'm sure I have mentioned before, I am aiming to keep the BX as long as I can keep it on the road, comfortable and (relatively) quiet. Looking for new cars is a total pain and I don't like the idea of many newer cars - too difficult to fix simple things on and questionable reliability.
Admittedly, I have been getting a bit of grief from the BX this year, and MOT time is coming up too but fingers crossed it won't cost too much...

Re: Hydraulic Pump Needed
They may have a recon ready on the shelf in which case you pay a supplement until they receive your old unit back. Or something like that.

No, he didn't. That pump in now living quite happily under the bonnet of a BX in Germany, I should know, I sold it after having tested it myself!Defender110 wrote:Indeed he did.RxBX wrote:[

Re: Hydraulic Pump Needed
He sent two or three back before he got the good one.

Re: Hydraulic Pump Needed
No, he didn't send any back, Plaiedes just sent him replacements. The "worst one" he took apart, the "intermittent" one is happily goose-stepping round Schweinfurt in Deutschland and the one that made funny noises at mid-revs is still on my car and absolutely fine, always has been.
I think his technique was the issue.
:edit:
Oh, and the ORIGINAL one off the car is now part of Vannys sphere tester, yes it was a LITTLE noisier than normal when I tested it but worked absolutely fine in every way.
