Can you have the DLC coating reverse engineered to see what they put on it?
That would help in answering the question of whether there is an organic amine ablation issue or sediment or water or all of the above?
Perhaps Dweisel could or Ricatic could? I am not in possession of any more failed HPFPs, I passed them on for others to learn from. Bosch has been a biatch about getting wrecked pumps, they want the cores... only folks I've seen get them back is when an insurance job pays the whole $8000 bill and the owner is smart enough to ask to keep all the old parts.... most are just happy their car is running again and don't want the junk parts in their garage... however, they do show up on ebay from time to time, usually labeled "looks fine externally" ;-)
