Hi

I had a replacement filter as part of my last service - charged .5 hour - should have got him to change the pump but didn't think at the time - got a pump on eBay and changed it myself - took about an hour - it would have taken 2 hours tops to change the pair myself as the hardest part is stopping/draining the petrol (sorry gas!) and you wwould only have had to do it once.

If I had been changing the filter at the same time it would have taken another half an hour at the most.

Remember to get replacement washers for the banjo attachements from the pump to the filter as they tend to leak if you don't. Most of the fixings are well plated or brass - in the UK we use salt on the roads when it's frosty and even corrosion from that didn't cause me any great problems getting the bolts/nuts undone.

Don't pay for any more than 2 hours whatever they say - BUT take the car in with a nearly empty tank.

Cheers

Jim

Cheers
