A list of all the bits that I would need for an oil pump change.

 

Gaskets and all that stuff....

 

 

Thanks

out of interest is the car an auto or a manual.im wondering if the noise is being transfered along the crank.watched the video of yours and find it hard to believe that the pump making a noise like that would function.it does sound dire mate.im sure if it was the pump whirring like that youd have low oil pressure.

Its manual.

 

I watched the gauge and it was low. But can you really trust the original gauge?

 

What else you saying it could be then? Just the timing of the noise coming in all points to the oil pump.

 

And when you put a screwdriver on the pump casing its loud as f**k

im wondering if its a noise further back like the input shaft bearing in the gearbox.some noises will carry along shafts etc.have heard of wheel bearings replaced when the actual cause was a diff carrier bearing.have you listened underneath the car at the rear of the engine?

Nope.

MY dad has listened to the video and doesnt recon its the oil pump. Hes not really sure what it is. He said check the regulator/relief on the pump.

where is the vid ?

Here

 

look further back paul in help and advice.sounds like an electric wood planer!!

It sounds that good?!?! lol

you could tell people you had a blower fitted. LOL :D

blimey sounds impressive.

One of a kind!!!

SERIOUSLY though bud i would investigate a bit more before you wade in and change the oil pump.not the best job to do at home.have a listen from the rear as well around the bellhousing.

Its only a bit of work, lol.

 

I would pay someone else to do it, but I got no money after buying this one. So ill have to do it all myself, with help from friends (i hope)

have a look in the engine bay to see if there is a table saw in there coz thats what it sounds like. you shouldnt be able to miss it. lol
