I was under the impression that there are very few places that do this for our car and it very expensive. Figure that trucks must have their IP rebuilt all the time, but very little demand for us passenger drivers.

It cost $766 at Mountaineer Diesel in Charleston, WV. There were initially using Bosch parts until I pointed them toward MB. The price difference between the Bosch diaphragm and the MB unit was almost $150!
That included a new governor diaphragm, rear cover with poppet cam (?), lift pump rebuild (my parts), and whatever voodoo they perform on the flow bench. Their driver makes state wide pickups, so it was also delivered to my door saving me a three hour round trip and half a tank of gas.
They primarily rebuild large pumps from trucks but have the capability to rebuild IPs for our cars, although it's not something they do on a regular basis.
