Yeap I think that is the case as well. Just took my Honda back tot he Dealer that replaced the hose as it started whining and they have just advised that I need a new pump. Replacement cost for a genuine pump is $1800. After market is $1100. Anyone have any ideas on how to follow this up with Honda or know where to get a cheap pump?

My guess is it would be too hard for us to prove that was the case and Honda know this.
