Hello,
Unfortunately, I have to disagree with Markus. The AKN engines also have the same problem with the camshafts as the AFB. A friend of mine also had to replace the camshafts in his car. It had a mileage of 143,000 km and was manufactured in 2000.
So, from that perspective, the AKN doesn't seem to be significantly better either.

Best regards,
Volker

...thank you for the advice, I will check again to see if it's progressing.
and obtain a written cost estimate icon_rolleyes.gif.
Is €550.00 a reasonable amount for the repair? According to the BOSCH technician...
It's a problem with the pump's control unit.
Let's see...
Best regards, Helmuth.

PS: To top it all off, the airbag light was also on icon_redface.gif.
Apparently, there's an intermittent contact problem under the seat. The error memory has been cleared, and everything is working again (hopefully, until the next time).

Hello Seabauer!

'The people at Bosch often say it's a problem with the control unit. I wouldn't rely on that being the error, though.'

It took me 4 hours to replace the pump myself. It's a really unpleasant job. However, I wouldn't necessarily be willing to pay €550 for someone else to do it (unless I was absolutely sure it would solve the problem).

No one can guarantee that, though. (See my experience – it was a disaster.)

Hi Knubbi,

Finally, a car that revs up to 4500 icon_biggrin.gif.
The fuel injection pump seems to be stuck somewhere, possibly on the magnetic sensor.
There were iron shavings present on the spur gear.
According to Bosch, it might have been water that caused the pump to 'fail.'
led.
The 'new' pump was priced at €550.00 plus €162.00 for labor. The old one is being repaired. Was the price reasonable?
Okay, so the interesting thing was, there was a Vectra 2.0 DTI and a 320d in the workshop, both with a faulty fuel pump. Do these also use a VP44 pump (is that only for 6-cylinder engines or?)

Best regards, Helmuth.
