CLK W208 Cabriolet Soft Top Pump

[Lockking]

Hi all, looks like the pump has a fluid leak and wondering if anybody knows any hydraulic people who might be able to sort it out. I've found a company in the States who can fix it but just seeing if anyone knows of a company in the UK who could help. Not doing dealer prices! Maybe ebay but then you could be back were you started on a used unit. Any help much appreciated. Cheers Lockking

Is it the pump or just one of the connections? If its one of the pipes it might just need a new 'o' seal.

Not sure. there's fluid under and at the sides of the pump motor. The end plate which has most of the hydraulics pipes is dry but there are a couple of pipes on the other side of the pump which which until the pump is remove you can't see. I need to pull the pump out.

Can you see when it's working? Dry it all out and operate the roof and look if there's a leak. You might need a small mirror to look behind.

Cheers aircondoc, but roof packed up working. Had a good look and every thing around the pump and pipes is dry. Just a pool of fluid underneath. Going to pull it out tomorrow and have a proper look but I think it's the pump! I'll let you know.
