Oil pump replacement
hi all is it necessary to remove all 3 chain tensioners before removing the oil pump (main pump) or is it enough just to remove the bank 2 tensioner? |
Why do you think you need to change your oil pump??
|
The pump is rattling at idle when warm. I have the cover of and can see is is starting to wear out. thats why I will change it. |

Could the rattling really be the IMSB? The pump is driven off the shaft. |
It was enough just to remove bank 2 chain tensioner. I locked the crankshaft just in case. |
So, was the pump damaged? I had mine out this winter, they are pretty robust. I think I'd be checking filter and dropping sump. If you find anything there, pull the transmission and check that IMS.
|
I too would like to see what a damaged oil pump looks like. Have you dropped the sump and inspected your oil filter?
As others have said IMSB would be my main concern! |
Nothing observed in oil filter and the pump had only minor surface scratches on end plate and opposite side of the two pump gears. |
|
Then the rattling must be something else. Are you sure it's coming from the pump, maybe a pulley bearing? Lets us know what you find.
|
Yes it was from the pump. It is now rattle free after replacement. I had also expected more wear inside to make it rattle like it did. |
Glad to hear it's all good to go.
