    I was driving when I noticed the car was not as responsive and lost power. I was able to drive another 5 minutes before my car could barely get moving in first gear and flooring it. It stalled when I was driving, at the same time a loud air burst noise was made. When attempted to start again it...

    I checked the pump unplugged with 12 v and it runs fine. Relay 373 in the 13 relay box and its' fuse are fine. Is there a module for the pump somewhere that could be bad? if anyone out there could send me a wiring diagram of the pump and its control would be great.

    It appears I have a short in the wiring to the pump. Pump works. Connector at pump on car side shows 0.4 Ohm. The wiring diagram I have shows the pump motor is connected to the J510 Vehicle electrical system control module. Show T6ap (green/white) wire. T6ap is "6 pin connector". Can someone...

    So I picked up a W8 for crazy cheap and it needs a fuel pump but all anyone seems to sell is the entire assembly. Can you not swap out just the pump? ECS tuning has a ton of pump options but I asked them about using them in the stock fuel setup and they said they are for custom fueling...

    Starting to hear a whining noise from the PS pump when I turn the wheels end to end. Gonna check the fluid first to see if it is at the proper level. What type of fluid should I buy just in case I need to top it off? Just regular PS fluid or does VW have some special grade that I need t use?

    98 1.8. Replaced thermostat and now there is a leak. I will dig into that later. Real question is regarding the water pump belt. Car continued to overheat as I drove it home from work (where I did the thermo change in the parking deck). Shut off car and rolled into a convenient parking lot and...

    Car turns over but won't start after running fine the day before, so I figured the 1st thing I'd check is that the fuel pump is getting power. Except I'm not seeing what I see in every YouTube video and other posts on this forum. There should be an access cover for it behind the passenger side...

    Our son drove in from the Phoenix area for Thanksgiving, in the old '98 wagon which had a dripping water pump. He had an Air Force buddy with him, so I didn't feel right pushing too much to start on the car. Then another Air Force guy from their basic training days shows up and stayed over...

    I recently changed my secondary air pump after the old one whined and eventually stopped working altogether. The new pump does not kick in when I start the car with a cold engine. The pump works when hooked to an external battery. The relay (373) seems to be fine, with no resistance between...

    I'm changing the fuel pump on a 2002 Passat GLS 4Motion Wagon 6 Cylinder. There are 2 electrical connections that I foolishly didn't take a picture of before taking the old pump out, and I'm not sure which connection goes where. There's a black and orange (probably used to be white/clear)...

    Hey all, I have 2009 VW Passat 2.0 TSI with 130,000 miles. Couple of weeks ago I went to a dealership to replace a fuel pump control module (nothing bad with it, just to perform the recall). The very same day I noticed that my car started consuming a lot more gas than it used to. My combined...

    Hi everyone, My car, 2005 Passat GLX 4Motion 30V wagon, is garaged when at home, but sits in the sun when I'm parked at work. Recently it's been in the mid-upper 90s, so despite a windshield sun shade, the car is fairly hot when I get in to go home. Last week, it died rather suddenly about 3...

    Hello, I have a 2003 Passat 1.8T. My aux air pump goes on while car is off and cycles on and off all night and drains battery. I am disconnecting battery every time I turn car off. I’ve read posts about the 373 relay. Mine is inside dash behind steering wheel but can’t find the 40 amp fuse. Any...

    04 1.8t AWM Recently I replaced the coolant flange and temp sensor. Afterwards, a problem arose that had only happened once previously. It would overheat while driving, but stable at idle. My first thought was air bubble, because it wasn't overheating at idle. Bled the coolant at the heater...

    Hi, need some help before I spent another couple of 100 on my car.... My car is a 2006 Passat 3.6 with a BLV engine. It has around 140k miles on it but now idles very rough. Fault reading told me to change the high pressure fuel pump. Tested my (suspected) Fuel Rail Pressure today the way it is...
