[Tyz05]

£2500

Big difference between a fuel pump (lift pump) and an injection pump. Which is it?

 

 

Terex wanted £880+VAT for an electric lift pump for my digger! Sorted it with a £35 ebay job, still going strong.

 

thats because our parts are superior

Do you work for Terex?

 

The lift pump is a 12v diesel pump to assist flow from the tank to the injector pump. Nothing special as any semi competent mechanic will tell you. £880 plus VAT is a joke. How you can claim it's superior by a factor of 25 is beyond me. Particularly when the original one failed at 1900 hours. 1000 hours now on the £35 one and I don't much care it it fails this afternoon as I have a spare in the digger drawer.

 

Terex are a joke. They expand too fast, buy decent brands (Matbro, Schaeff) and then fail to invest whilst charging the earth for parts through a shoddy/non existant dealer network.

Whatever it costs it will not surprise me. I helped fit a power steering rack to my nephew's Honda. He bought one on ebay for £170, Honda wanted £1700 and £1300 to fit it. This is to a car probably valued at £2500.

well they wanted £3750 plus vat for pump the truck is not worth that her number plate is worth moe than truck but its in good nick for a 02 a joke she has taken it to lucas who are going to take off and refurbish it so it will be new. for a lot less.

wanted to charge me £250 for a lock unit how can they justify these prices when majority of it is made in the far east talk about ripping off there customers. i got a new lock in the end from local scrap yard for £35.
