    Brake vacuum pump leaking oil, any major difference in Revs E-H?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Is this a common thing? My '06 has barely 96k and my shop said mine is leaking oil... I've seen them used for as low as $60 and new for as low as $150, I wonder if a used one would just start leaking again soon... Also, there seems to be Revs E-H, does anyone know if it's important to match the one that's bad or are newer revs more reliable?

    OK, so it is a common thing and I should try to get Rev H: http://blog.europaparts.com/audi-vw-...-pump-failure/

    I ordered my pump from Europa Parts and it did the trick. Don't go used on this one, or you might be this job twice...

    Add long as it's rev H then it shouldn't be a problem, it's the easier ones that had a flawed design.

    Yup, I'm sure Hugh @ Europa Parts won't sell you the old rev

    Ya, thanks, otherwise used rev H is going for around $80 online... But I'll wait to see what yours is, rev version stamped right on it, end of part number, obviously.

    One note, if you buy the pump from Europaparts, you don't need an O-ring. It already comes with one. I should have asked :D
