Luk lf20 pas pump

[josh-cg608]

I have a annoying whine from the engine. Goes when belts off. Replaced alternator and tensioner, still the same. Have a gen water pump on order. If its not this i suspect pas pump. Dont really want to buy cheap chinese. Ideally want a luk refurbished or want to send mine off to et refurbished. Any links to a refurbished pump or somewere decent with a good reputation who can refurbish mine. Its a m54b30 engine

The LuK LF20 pump (it has a domed rear cover) is a load of crap. They are well known to shear the shaft internally resulting in no PAS. The LF30 (flat rear cover) is vastly better and they just never go wrong. You can buy a good used one and it's fluid pipe for 50-60 quid and it's a direct swap.

Brilliant, cheers for the help mate
