Which Oil Pump

I have 3 options;

Eurospare - cheap
Citroen - mid range not sure it would have a guarantee if fitted to D3?
LR Genuine - expensive

Not sure which to go for with this important part. Any advice or opinions?

For the extra few quid I went genuine. The pain you'd experience if you went cheap then it failed would be quite extraordinary. Same with brake pads and the like...

At least with the LR one if it fails you have a case to argue with LR re the engine, the Citroen dealer will just laugh and tell you to jog on.

PSA ones aren't on back order if you know where to look Wink

Also they are the same thing! The same part used by JLR is used by PSA Wink

JLR just make a bigger cut from it!
