Scirocco TSI_Fuel Pressure Pump Issue

Post by Arnu »

Howsit guys,

I'm new to the forum. I would just like some advice on a 1.4 tsi Scirocco I recently bought.
The car has 120k kms on and just had a service from VW.

I noticed the the sound was coming from the high pressure fuel pump. The noise only comes through on idle.
I ran the diagnostic and it showed Low Fuel pressure. Has anyone else had this issue before? Is this a part that can be fixed?
Or must it be replaced. Would appreciate your thoughts on this.

Thanks

Replace only, no fixing. But make sure the isue is not from the low pressure side that starves the pump of fuel.
