supercharger problem...

Hello automotive forums, I was looking for someone to help me out... My supercharger is going out in my 1997 Grand Prix GTP, and I was looking to replace it. Now the dealership told me that there was no way to fix it. the sealant is leaking. And question to you all, is that true??? Can anyone help me out please...And if it's not possible, can someone give me info. on someone that could replace it for less than the dealership price of $2,000.00
thank you

Re: supercharger problem...

Is it making boost still? If it isn't, then its probably best to buy a new one. If its still making adaqute boost, you need to find out where the supercharger oil is leaking and more often than not, people can just rebuild the snout with new bearings and seals, and be good to go. ZZP sells numerous eaton M90 replacement parts.

What exactly do you mean by sealant is leaking?

Are you referring to the snout seal or the area where the snout meets up to the main body?
