id say wait a few months till a true fix has been made. thats what i plan to do.
i havent heard of anyone having engine failure or fuel system failure due to the HPFP to immediately need the fuel pump change. i read its the plunger that squeaks correct me if im wrong but it could just be a normal thing for the DI in this engine to do i mean i have heard this exact sound in VW 2.0T FSI engines.
again i could be incorrect. ill try to scrounge up some more info from the A techs when i get a chance. |
^This is the reason I plan on waiting until the spring, when my car comes out of hibernation to have this addressed.
Again, the clicking/tapping sound is normal for the DI system. The chirping is not.
