Blown OMP
Hey guys. I have a friend with an 8 who has a blown OMP. Apparently the dealership wants $1500 to do the repair, since it's not under warranty. He is thinking of doing some motor upgrades in the future, I already suggested the Sohn OMP, I was just wondering if anyone else here that was smarter than I am could come up with any better suggestions.
Thanks in advance,
Blue

hey all I am the friend that has the problem. chuck posted the thread for me because i never posted before. Let me publicly thank him for that. So this is what happened I started the car on a cold morning did not let warm up and pulled out of my drive. buy the end of the block i noticed the engine light was on. When I pulled out on to the street I noticed a complete loss of power. Would not rev over about 3000. I dropped off my daughter and limped to the dealer. When they finally got around to taking a look at it there was no loss of power but the code was set in the computer so the engine light stayed on. They told me that they thought the OMP was going bad. That it had a high ohm reading. now as chuck said they want $ 1,500.00 to fix it. what do I do.

When there is a an error anywhere in the engine, the computer in the car logs a number that corresponds to a certain problem. For example a 3 equals a clogged injector. Whatever it is once you know, then you can start from there as far as troubleshooting it.

OK I'll ask the dealer on Monday. If it is a pump code when what, is the pump hard to replace, is this something that i can do my self. Where would I get this part from. The dealer told me the pump was $1200.00 does that sound right?
