Are there two fuel pumps on 2006 passat? I had repair work on my car at the dealer twice within a 10 ten days. During the initial repair I was told that I needed to have the fuel pumped replaced which is located in the back of the car. Then when I had to take it back because the engine light came back on & they're saying that there was a second fuel pump that needed to be replaced. (which is located in the front) I do know that there's a high pressure pump in the front of the car. I think they're trying to charge me for the high pressure pump twice & saying there's a second fuel pump in the front as well one in the back.

Alot of modern cars do have two fuel pumps, I cannot be sure of yours.

What I would do is call another VW dealership and ask them.

Guru is there any recourse I can take in that I was told the issue was a fuel pump and had it replaced.

Thats very good news. Be advised that on your vehicles system, the ten minute trick resets the vehicles TDM. If the problem happens again in the future, your TDM is failing. It should never need to be reset (ten minute trick) unless it is failing. Be thinking about getting this replaced or bypassed so you dont get caught off gaurd. Good luck. Happy things are working again.

Starts then, stops. After five or six times, starts.

I think the dealer installed another bad fuel pump.

01 Isuzu Rodeo LS loses acceleration after running for a while

This is a complex problem.

Do you have any repair record of the Rodeo LS?

When is the last


ignition module change?

fuel pump change?

fuel filter change?

DO YOU TOP OFF during gas refuel?
DO NOT DO IT

Are you able to get the OBD-II codes off the ECU?

=======

I will check fuel rail pressure first to rule out the fuel pump

add Chervon fuel injector clear and fill gas to above 1/2 tank

locate the ignition module and apply GOOD amount of white lithium grease to help it from over heat.

When the truck stall again check the temperature of gauage......Engine should be below 195F

Let the module cool and see does it ran well again.



Good luck

Oil usage in 2006 passat 2.0 turbo

I had the same problem with my wife's 2006 passat turbo. We lost 2.5 quarts in 3000 miles and the warning light came on. They put us on a 1000 mile oil test and I lost 1.8 more quarts of oil. They finally agreed to replace the rings. Service tech told me that the factory rings are defective, they begin to lead after about 25,000.

New battery in 03 VW Passat, engine turns but will not start.

Possible flooding, cold weather can freez open injectors causing them to leak into the cylinders. Press the gass pedal all the way to the floor and crank the engine for no more than 60 seconds. The cylinders will clear themselves allowing proper mix of air/fuel and should start easy. If that does not solve please specify if the engine is 1.8l or 2.8l.
