ABS Hydraulic Pump Bad??

Dear All:

My ABS light on my '95 325 has been on for about a month. Took it into the dealer who says it's a bad hydraulic pump. Cost $1,700 to replace, and that's just the cost of the part !!!!

I'm a little suspicious. Is this a common part to fail? How can I tell if I'm being told the truth? Would it be hard to find this part at a wrecking yard? Anyone else have this problem?

I wasn't suspicious about the price, I was suspicious about whether the pump was really the problem.

Any advice?

Mine two

Had the same thing happen in June on my 95 M3, which was certified for warranty until 12-01. Everyone says it is rare for the Hydraulic unit to fail and that is why you can't find used ones. I got 2nd opinions and still had to buy a new unit. Dealer just installed it today and called to say that this one also has a bad pump within the unit. I have spent $4,800 on service since June 24th and still don't have it fixed. I have also sent messages to BMW NA since it was only 6 months out of warrranty, but they refused to do anything, which is why we have so many independent BMW repair shops making money from us suckers.

I am determined to post as many messages as I can to warn owners that BMW doesn't care.
