Nope, it specifically states that the Lifetime warranty isn't in effect for this item. But, i can't see where it states any warranty period. i wouldn't want to get one that died in a short time, as opposed to having one with a known warranty.

Not too surprising. I needed one fast and bought an Amazon special for $120. Lasted 11 mo. but the Warranty replacement lasted years until we sold the car.

Heck, back before I retired, with the ability to work as much overtime as I wanted, price was not an object for my automotive projects and/or my race car. Having 5x the income was nice.

I vacuumed and cleaned the area, so nothing will contaminate the fuel. Took a photo of the extremely aged-looking top of the pump, and it has a reversed BMW logo and part number barely visible...might be oreiginal to the X5? I've got a '98 GMC with a 21 y.o. pump installed (I did it myself, so I'm sure of the age), so 24 years on a BMW pump might be achievable.


Then, I ordered the Hella pump assembly from RockAuto. It should be here in five days, so I can have all my tools and parts gathered and ready for the job. I can't find my brass punch to loosen the sealing ring, my hose-gripper pliers, nor my kit of small clamps (both worm gear and spring clip types). It looks like my garage Poltergeist has returned, or am I just getting forgetful?
