I'd call salvage yards that may have that left side pump to see if they have a bad one they'd be willing to sell you so you can take the clip you need off of it. |
No, I've seen numerous threads saying BMW doesn't sell the clip. It's common for the gas guys to break the clip on the top of their pump, and most just buy a replacement line for like $50. But BMW doesn't sell just the line between the 2 pumps in the diesel, only the whole left pump assembly.
Some guys talked about these clips being made by Dorman. But there's a lot of them. 800-023, 800-040, 800-041, 800-027, 800-122.5, 800-003
I'm hoping one of these are the right ones because they're only like $10 for a pack of them.
Not a terrible idea for the salvage yard, not like I'd need one that works. But the odds of the only salvage yard within 3 hours of here having an e70 diesel are pretty low. Everything is closed today but I'll add them to the list of places to call tomorrow.
