Yes mine has just been repaced at the dealer due to leaking oil If everything is under control you are not going fast enough.

Like noworries I have only two week back had my vac pump replaced. It was leaking from one of the seals which in turn had the fan throwing oil up on left hand underside of bonnet. I have a 07 plate puma and believe the vac pumps had three seals, the newer pumps now only have two( a mod which is hopefully for the better !). Mine was out of warranty but the AA break down repair cover I have covered a new vac pump! Sweep

ask them to fit the latest pump with the double seal or it'll go again

I got my 09 plate 110 at around 5k miles. It looks like the pump went at one point in the past, as there was some residual oil on some of the surrounding components, and little bit on the bonnet... however once I cleaned it off (about 20K miles ago), there was never any fresh oil.

This is the mess they can make (1000 km's from nearest dealer!)

Hi Steve sorry for the late reply, they changed the whole unit for the new 2 seal one, probably just me but my brakes are much better now If everything is under control you are not going fast enough.

Just to say...the failure (whilst i would get it fixed asap) always looks worse Mike
