Fuel Pump Question TFSI MK5 - Removal

<< < (2/3) > >>

bacillus:
If removing the pump, take extra care when trying to disconnect the electrical connector from the top of the pump as the plastic piece on the pump is not robust.

Cupra R:
Best way I have found with any of the Electrical Plugs is to push them on a little further, then release the catch.  Seems to work everytime for me.  :happy2:

GLIDN:
Done mine this afternoon, was pretty easy. No leaking fuel which is always a good thing.
But did find a hair line fracture across the sensor on top?

I guess pump replacement?

Otherwise I had a banjo fitting and nut for the bottom two connections. Will post photo's to orris sometime.

Not absolutely necessary as lots of guys in the US have this problem and run without issues.

SLight high jack but whilst were on the subject of pumps, has ANYONE noticed a different sort of higher pitched noise coming from the HPFP area when accelerating?
Im worried its not fitted properly! I feel i can hear it more at the moment but that prob because i have just fitted a twintake and removed the engine cover! any help is much appreciated!
