I haven't noticed a noise in the water pump. As for the MAF, I did replace it last July with one from Autozone, and it didn't have any residue or anything on it. Maybe the part was just inferior. But they want to charge $187 to take the MAF out and put another in. It's like changing a light bulb...I'm a little insulted.
Transmission: Pilot Bushing and ETC control Module
Hey, guys. Just got my '98 e320 back from the dealer to get a recalled part replaced. He also gave me a service estimate. Check it out:
You have a couple different problems the engine mass air flow sensor, and for the transmission the pilot bushing is leaking and has gotten fluid into the etc control module,both the bushing and etc control module will need to be replaced,also the water pump bearing is bad and has play in the shaft. These repairs would cost about $1800.00,I will give you a brake down when you pick up car.The harmonic balancer was not involved in the recall. Also the etc control module would have to be ordered it is VIN specific to your car.I will call when the car and billing is ready.
Are these things that I could order from a website and take to an indie? What would you do? My budget is extremely limited. Let's just say, as a college student, I'd have to sell a kidney to afford the dealer rate. And no parental bailouts- I'm a libertarian.
