Well, here I am again, screwed by the great corporate whore. The pump has gone bad at 170,000 miles. This may be do to something the previous owner did. Problem is AMG (American Motors of Germany) won't let Bosch release the parts to rebuild. Can't find one in a junk yard. No parts in Germany. No parts in USA. MB does have new ones they will graciously let me buy for $6,000 and I can use my old pump for a boat anchor. Screw them. Does anyone know where I can get a pump or should I sell this car for parts?

Crazy. I've heard other German mfrs have similar restrictive agreements with Garrett, etc. So, when someone needs a new actuator for their turbo, you can't buy it. If you listen to the stealer, complete replacement is the only option

There's a very good BOSCH shop in Portland OR. I'd contact them prior to do anything rash.

Do you know how to use http://car-part.com/ ?

Try these guys for a use pump.
