I replaced the OEM pump with a Shur-Flo 5.7 pump. A little quieter and more pressure and flow. Mine is 5 years old and still going.

We have a Flojet VSD and like it a lot. Used it every day for 7+ years now.

We have the SHURflo 5.7 as well and like it. It is a bit quieter than the stock pump and does have better pressure. The first one we had failed after about 9 mos. while, of course, we were dry camping in Quartzsite this year. Bought a Flow-Jet at the local RV parts store to get us through the rest of the trip.

SHURflo was great about replacing the pump when I contacted them after returning home. They directed me to our local CW store and exchanged it right on the spot. This particular pump has a 3 year manufacturer's warranty. I will keep the Flow-Jet in the rig for a spare if I or another camper needs it in a pinch. The Flow-Jet worked great too.
