There was an update to the LPFP in the past to help sort out a cold starting issue so I suspect your mate had an early year model GTI.

I suggest you first change your fuel filter before shelling out the big buck for the pump and redo your logs.

Sorry for the delay replying to your email, i have literally just sat own at 11.15pm after being on the dyno ince 9am.

From what I have seen in your email it seems a fault with the low pressure fuel supply, change the fuel filter and see if that helps. (not likely but worth a try as a process of elimination)

Will take another look over your logs tomorrow hen I can see/think properly.

Dave.

Fuel filter changed and........ I think it has worked!   I managed to get the wheelspinning in second without no power cut!




I will try on way home tonight if its fully sorted it out!

PROBLEM SOLVED  :congrats: Fuel filter was the culprit!

Currently on stock Revo settings from removing the battery, but no fuel cut during my way home from work!

I thank you all who put there time to posts on this thread to help me out!





Now is it the case of putting the rs4 valve back on or just sell it ? Do i really need it ?

I would put the valve back in as the slightly higher cracking pressure gives your injectors a little extra headroom.
