If you are asking about replacing it as preventive maintenance because of its age I have read stories of these pumps breaking and causing major engine damage when the bearings and other debris from a busted pump find their way to the timing chain etc. I am not sure which model benz this has happened to. Maybe someone out there can chime in on this. Jim
