Reviews of OEM Volkswagen oil pump

2.0 Cr Tdi-t hajtok, 190le 400nm, hülye autó 1600 javasolja a felváltást. 2500-3000 között szoktam, 3000-nél az olajpumpa nagynyomású fokozatba vált (egyszer vmi Vw kézikönyvben találtam egy diagramot, ott írta, tehát nem a seggemből húzom ki az információt) 2500 felett mostanában mentem vele, de volt már arra is példa hogy 4700 volt a fordulat (padlógáz, intenzív gyorsítás) tök jól húzott, igaz hangja is volt rendesen. Turbó meg motor mindig visszahűtve mikor leállítom, olajcsere ezen a kocsin 12 ezrenként megvan. Eddig egy kipufogószelepet kellett pluszba cserélni mert beragadt.

Was the oil pump replaced with a brand new one specifically for the Eurovan? I know that the Golf and Jetta oil pump is more common and it has a shorter pickup strainer. So if they used the wrong oil pump, you are starving your new engine.

New Oil pump is in and will fill it tomorrow.

The oil pump was checked for lash and end play. Dead center of tolerance. So I'm reusing it. It is however a bit scarred up where the vanes go around (the bore surface).

For a 1.8 8-valve get the oil pump which ends in "D" (93 gas golf) it's a higher volume / pressure pump. the pump will fit the 1.8 engines and the ABA.... the "D" just pushes more oil through the engine which is a very good thing. Better lubrication, better cooling, less lifter niose.

From reading on the B6 Forum...the B6 has something that the B5's sure don't....V6 engines that die sudden deaths from oil pump bolt failures!

The oil pump pick up screen separated from the seal due to debris built up and a piece of metal from one of the chain guides got through and froze the pump gears.

The pump looks to be too beat up to keep. Even though I could maybe drimmel the bad spots down, I'm just going to get a fresh pump.

MK3 TDI oil pump, waaay bigger gears mean no oil problems at high rpm

VW oil pump is an excellent design. Starving the pump of oil is the main way to kill it.
