Wechsel Einspritzpumpe VP44

[Translating...]

Hallo,
habe für meinen AFB (in Passat 3B, 100.000km, siehe https://community.dieselschrauber.org/en/viewtopic.php?t=1746) auf ebay eine neue Einspritzpumpe ersteigert (EUR 430 statt EUR 1500). Die stamme aus einer Werkstattauflösung, sei neuwertig, noch nicht verbaut gewesen und sei von einem Boschdienst überprüft worden. Der Verkäufer konnte das auch alles recht glaubhaft vorbringen.

Dumme Frage (bin nicht vom Fach, arbeite in der IT): Wenn ich das Teil nun bei meiner VAG-Werkstatt einbauen lassen, woher wissen die eigentlich wie das Zahnrad auf der Antriebswelle der Pumpe stehen muß, wenn die den Zahnriemen auflegen???

Vielen Dank im Voraus,
Christian

However, your title indicates that you acquired a VP44 pump. If that's the case, you might have gotten a good deal, but the pump won't fit in your car. Within the Volkswagen Group, the Audi V-6 engine is the only model that has ever been equipped with such a pump.
Best regards, Lanz.

If I'm not mistaken, the V6-TDI engine was also available in the Passat 3B, and the specified engine code likely corresponds to the V6 model.

But on a completely different note... if the ESP system fails after 100,000 km, wouldn't that almost qualify for warranty coverage? It should really last much longer.

Best regards,

Jan.

You're right, Jan. The same V6 engine was also installed in the Passat for a short time. It had 110 kW and a 2.5-liter displacement. The engine codes were AFB and AKN. Sorry, I missed that.
Best regards, Lanz.

Deleted as requested.

If someone accidentally or unknowingly loosens the fuel injection pump rotor, or if they don't want to pay the friendly price of €1600 for the repair, I might be able to help.
Having personally experienced problems with the VP44 fuel injection pump (A6 engine KB:AFB with 240,000 km), I have become quite knowledgeable about this topic.
