can anyone help

[Thunder]

Guys does anybody know where I can find this?




Looking to only replace the pulley if possible.
Was told by the guy at GW I will have to buy the whole pump and it will only be available at the stealers.

Now my question is can I only replace the pulley somehow or do I have to replace the whole pump?

They say I must replace the whole pump but I cant think why if it is only the bearings on the pulley that has gone.

Most dealers would say that... Take off the pulley and take it to someone like Bearing man and order a new one. Let them take the measurements to make sure you get the right one. They would probably not be able to work on a bmw part numer or vin etc.

Any engineering shop can pressfit the bearing for you. You can even do it youself. The bearing retaining marks probably wouls have to be grinded off, but once the new bearing is fitted, you can strike in new retaining marks. I have done this with one of my other cars and three years later I am still good.
