Volvo circulation pump 2003

Does anybody know where i could find a pattern pump for my engine rather than the £515 that the dealer wants, seems a little over the top.

Would it not be cheaper to rebuild your original pump?

Have a look at the parts catalogue - the pump's a fairly simple device and (barring catastrophic failure) should be easy to overhaul.

What is the problem with the pump that it needs replacing/repairing?

I have never done this on a Volvo but have done the odd car one many years ago. I cannot see any fixing mechanism in the drawings and parts lists, so it appears that the pulley wheel may be pressed on. Ones I did were pinned on, from memory. If pressed you should be able to push it off, or get someone to do it for you at a small cost. All assuming that you can buy the bearing and seal as separate items.

I had to buy one of these for my MD22L in Messina, Sicliy. They charged me €520 for it there. I looked at repairing the original one with a view to having a spare. I tried getting the flange off it but could not with ordinary tools. It looks like its pressed on so maybe a press would push it off with a press. Theres little online about repairing them. I slung mine in the metal skip. Volvo spares are a ripoff.
