whining noises coming from the right rearside of the car is a common indicator

Default **bad fuel pump is caused by clogged fuel filter most of the times.
But please do inform me, how can u tell you have a clogged fuel filter before it becomes audible, and causes your fuel pump to go bad?

-edited...i did mean fuel filter.

Default Your best bet is to publicly apologize for your ignorance.

I believe she meant fuel filter. A clogged filter causes the pump to work harder

Default Cool, any thoughts on a block I could log with the Vag-Com? (m)
I get some stumble under boost and I have been wondering if it is a fuel issue.
