Whirring Fuel Pump 1987 318i

Recommended Posts

Hi,

The fuel pump on my 1987 BMW 318i (m10 engine) is whirring away continuously. Not giving any problems that i'm aware of. Is this a sign the pump is on it's way out ? car has done 120,000km

If so then what would this cost to replace ? Could a local garage do the work ?

Cheers

Thanks

Pete

The one on my 85 320i has been whizzing away non-stop for at least a year now. So maybe it's on it's way out, but not necessarily quickly!

They obviously "wirr" continuously while going, more than normal noise is an indication the pump is on the way out
