You can do it
All the info here is good. Except...as you can see by the photos, the impellor does not wear out, as they are metal.
(I have seen some plastic ones on VWs.) What wears out is the shaft bushing/bearing, and the seal. You could replace the pump yourself, as it is just one of those 'get in and do it' jobs. Get a stiff wire brush (toothbrush style) to help clean off the gasket surfaces. Get a tube of silicone gasket sealer for the gasket.
