Fitted the new Meyle low pressure fuel pump to my Edition 30. nbsp Have only had 1 cold start since installing it as I'#039ve been away, but unfortunately it still spluttered into life (without priming it, to test new fuel pump)

Before I had the n75 changed it had P0299 low boost. But now that’s replaced the turbo has no problem building boost it just won’t sustain it for more than a second without the wastegate opening.
