It’s incredible to not to be able to understand … do you sometimes have reflexion ?

I have two vw and my zl1…

If it was a trouble known on my both other cars I wouldn’t care…

And for the fourth Time … this is possible, the consequences would be important and very expensive

As I ever said you can find another post to rot…

I’m looking for some clever answers as some other guys did it on this post
Thanks to them

It seems pretty simple to me. If you are concerned about it, your options are to:

1) replace it with the Katech pump and not worry anymore.

2) take a risk that it might be fine or it might not be fine. With yours being a '19, I'd say your risk level is very low for failure.

Sure, anything is possible. You could bend a rod tomorrow or spin a bearing. You can't worry about every possible failure when the failure rate is so low. The LT4 is a pretty bullet proof engine with the exception of the 2017 and 2018 oil pumps. You don't own one of those years so you should stop worrying.

I will for sure update when they are finished.
Any updates?

Yes I can replace thé oil pump and I’m’thinking about it… thé only thing is that Here in France … there is nearly no specialists and garages owners refuse to take care of the zl1… Because if the value

Here in France there are à lot of clowns in the us car world… they don’t want to take any risk… even for a simple oil change it’s a real complicated situation..

I know it’s not difficult but I’m thé worst mechanic on earth.. I have no aptitude…

That would be a problem then because that's not an easy job. I wouldn't worry about it until it fails and it's likely that it won't.

If you don't mind the driving you can over to the UK. The is a shop south of London where they have experience with this kind of job and they can swap the oil pump for you. Let me know if I can be of any help or if you need their contacts.

Just to give you an idea, if I recall correctly, they would charge you approximately 1500 GBP for the installation of a new pump.
