Fuel pump information needed please.

Hi all

Have a recurring non start problem with my 54 plate d3. I have been advised it is probably the low pressure fuel pump in the tank.

Spoke to my local robbing Censored dealer and they inform me that the price is £620+vat parts only Big Cry as it comes with a control module on this age vehicle.

So for some techy person out there I have 2 questions

1 what is the control module for and why does it need renewal??
2 as I repair all my own vehicles will the module need coding once fitted?? If so can anyone on here help?

Cheers simp

The in-tank pump doesnt need coded to the car AFAIK. But that does seem rather expensive, and they aren't that common for failing...

Do you have a copy of the fault codes handy?

No fault codes as not dealer diagnosed. Only spoke to parts person who informs me that the pump and module come as a kit... I cannot buy a pump separately!

Just wondering why?? Hopefully someone on here will have experienced this and have an answer.

Who advised the pump was at fault?

Would be well worth investing in a diagnostic session before you go throwing parts at the car, hoping for a fix Thumbs Up

Just out of interest, have you replaced the fuel filter? Quite common for blocking up, and causing various issues Question
