Re: NEW Fuel pump making noise??

Cool....

Do you know how easy it is to replace the lift pump....is it a labour intensive thing....not something I could do so I'd take it to my local VW garage. Is it likely to cost me lots in labour?


Cheers

NEW Fuel pump making noise??

Hi all, I have just picked up my car from a garage that has tried fixing problems with my car jerking (when trying to accelerate) and stalling when coming to a stop.

Aaaaaargh. The fuel filler neck bites!

Scirocco performance

Hi all, I'm new to this board and new to sciroccos. I have just bought a scala (picking it up tonight) and wanted to get some feedback on how these cars are meant to be driven.... Put simply, can the car (and was it really designed to) handle being driven at high revs....as a sports car is.....or ...
