Hi Guys,
Recently bought a 2015 VW Golf 2.0 GT TDI and need help with getting it to run right. It is a DSG model.
The car when it eventually did start would run very rough with an obvious fueling problem. VCDS scan showed up a P0087 code for Fuel Rail/System Pressure too low.
The garage started off by changing the fuel filter which did not help.
I then source a known good fuel rail with the sensors on each side and had the garage swap this over and again it did not help.
The garage pulled and checked the in tank fuel pump and assured me it seemed to be working as it should although they had no way of measuring this to make sure 100%.
All online searches after this led us to believe that it could be the high pressure fuel pump and so i sourced a known working good used pump and had the garage change this over and also change the timing belt and water pump at the same time as they were there. Although it initially seemed to run alot better, it still wasnt right and still had some sort of fueling issue. The car runs but randomly cuts out, sometimes straightaway, sometimes after a good while. VCDS scan still shows up the P0087 code.
VCDS scan shows up several other voltage faults but this is likely to due it having a new battery recently and not being driven since.
Lately im struggling to get it to start at all.
Anyone got any ideas?
Anyone able to recommend someone who knows their stuff in Manchester to take a look?
Thanks
Billy
