my local MB dealer charged $1800 to swap the pump. That was a couple years ago, but still sounds high?

i had the same code and diagnosis. where is your dealer located? i'm wondering if this is a correct diagnosis? i believe the pump is about $1300 + labor.

p.s. ihad the job done and have the old pump. they said the pressure was low, but the steering and ride height were fine when i brought it in. i question if the pump was really bad, that's why i got the old one back. there supposedly are places that can rebuild the pump if bad. if you want to take a chance on my pump, or have it rebuilt i would be willing to sell it for $180.00
