The Stealer wanted to charge me that to replace the vacuum pump which is working just fine! The oil leak appears to be coming from the sending unit which I will replace ASAP! I can't believe the dealer wanted to rip me off! I feel like stopping in and talking to the GM especially after spending $7k to replace the tranny 5 mo ago ......
BTW, how the heck you got that sending unit out? Is it with a deep socket or?? Any idea on the size? |
removal on the Oil-pressure switch/oil-temperature switch
Note: [Oil and screw in] 24mm 6 points -- 3" deep socket ---- 20 Nm torque
