Description of the problem | My car was driving fine until feb 2018 after i get it back from getting the suspension redone. After driving it 20 miles my car stops running as i am driving through a major road leaving the military base. I get it towed to the volkswagen dealership and they state that the high pressure fuel pump had failed (after 2 months of fixing my regular fuel pump) causing the engine to loose compression and now they said i need to pour in a new engine and new high pressure fuel pump and a turbo that was scraping metal shavings into my engine as well. |
