i would imagine that you need to replace it which involves removing the cambelt
lets say £300 tops and an independant0 -
I'd also use it as an opportunity to get the cambelt changed if that's the case.0

I did had to have mine replaced on my 1997 2.0 petrol one a few years ago when it failed on the M74. And the pump isn't driven by the timing belt.0 -
