Has anyone ever changed the oil pump themselves? How long did it take you? From what I understand its a real PITA because you have to take off the front cover. Anyway I had my motor rebuilt and it came with a 1 year warranty. Well about 1 month later my oil pres light came on and I took it to local nissan dealer. They are telling me its gonna be 12 hours labor @ 85$/hr. I could realy give a shit since it is getting warratied but that sounds like an awful long time to me. Just curious if anyone else ever changed one and how long it took. So far its about a week later and they stil havent even found the problem which I assume is the oil pump.

12 hours seems a bit long, ecspecially for a shop. But if they will do it for free, let them take 20 hours as long as its done right.

12 hours is almost enough time to pull the motor, change the pump and put the motor back in
