High pressure pump
10 Answers
Partner's diesel car "died" last week. Garage has told him the high pressure pump needs replacing and quoted over £700. Just wondered if anyone knew if this sounds right. Seems pricey to me but I know nothing about cars.

If so you will be being quoted for a brand new manufacturers pump.
A pattern part made (sometimes in the same factory) without the branding may be much cheaper.

Cheaper too would be a reconditioned pump

UK diesel hasn't been subject to freezing up for years. They add anti gelling agents at the refinery and adjust the levels according to the weather forecasts. Ask them to explain how cars work in places such as canada where the temps regularly drop to minus 30 / 40. Has he been waiting for the glow plug light to go out before starting?
