I am replacing the vacuum pump in my car. Originally the turbo went out and I sent it to a garage to get replaced. Once that was fixed they called me to tell me my vacuum pump was out and causing my brakes not to work, you literally have to stand on them to get them to stop. I got the part he said I couldn't afford to pay him to fix it, but I wish I would have it was a easy fix. But when I pulled the vacuum pump off this bolt came out with it which I am guessing when the old pump seized. It caused this crank bolt to snap inside the motor. I cannot figure out what this bolt is I need to buy. I posted a video and pictures of whats going on. I need help badly.

Can you show us the old vacuum pump? That piece may have broken off the original vacuum pump? Attaching image of the the pump below. It is just the outer screws on the housing that attaches to the head. Please provide pics of the old vacuum pump housing. Where did you get that piece from? Also that piece has female ends? The vacuum pump has male ends for the camshaft?

The only other thing I can think of is it is the camshaft reluctor ring for the camshaft sensor that broke off.

BB5Z-6K269-A is the part number it is called the Drive Coupling the turbo vacuum comes from that pump and that's the because of turbo failure. I'm sure over boosted and failed mine did it. Well, my vacuum pump failed but I still drove it without knowing the turbo got vacuum from it and the next day my turbo blew the oil seal and smoke went everywhere at that point I still didn't know it was supplied by the vacuum pump as nothing said it on any of the threads so changed turbo and kept driving until I had a way to fix the pump well guess what boom did the same thing again I traced the lines and yes it feeds the turbo also not just the brake booster.

Hi Michelle Bollman.

We can help you with this information. This sounds like you have what you are showing in the picture is part of the intake camshaft that drives the vacuum pump.
There are several ways of repairing, (i never had a issue so that has to be timed, it is off set for timing tool) so I don't know if it comes as individual part or with camshaft (intake). Asking the dealer will reveal that, if it is sold as a intake camshaft to repair that you will require timing tools to perform this repair.
Check out the diagrams (below).
Let us know what happens.
I am glad to help you, If there is anything else we can help you with please contact us again. Thank you for choosing 2CarPros.

Cheers, Nick
