When I took my car to them they wanted £300 in diagnosis costs alone! They believed the camfollower, camshaft and HPFP were all knackered after looking at the two fault codes the system showed.
He checked various bits and bobs and then did some research into the fault codes that resulted in coming across further information relating to a faulty low fuel pressure sensor. He ordered it and then removed the old one for inspection before fitting it. The old one was in a bit of a state to be honest too. Really covered in gunk and dirty when it should have been clean. I also noticed that the fuel that came out of the fuel filter when I replaced it was extremely dirty but the fuel from the inlet lines was clean.

No its one in the fuel line by the engine -either G410 or G247 I think? Would have to double check.
