Audi Q7 Fuel Pump Filter / Pressure Regulator Module Replacement Drivers Side

[@robmccIII]

Isn't there an open safety recall to repair this issue?

[@FarReachFR]

You know you are right! looks like one in 2016 and 2018. I should check those more frequently.

Glad to hear it. All the best!

If you’re not a mechanic, I can’t tell. You have big balls for changing that yourself. Good job!!!

[@FarReachFR]

Thank you Belinda!

Hi buddy, any idea what way you disconnected the driver side rear seat heating connector (Green plug)?

[@JR-uy1nx]

It's better to use a copper screwdriver or any copper pipe to open the lock to avoid sparks

I don't know if you figured out but the black single wire coming from the bottom, in the OEM it's in the right side, in the new one it's at the left. I did the same thing you did but the mileage consumption did stop to work, did you have the same issue? Note : I didn't disconnect the battery, so I'm thinking that record a code in any module or because it's not OEM part that one I got. I'll appreciate you so much for a reply. Blessings buddy.

[@FarReachFR]

its been awhile, but I dont recall any issues after install. That said I dont remember specifically scrolling through to the MPG, but I think I would have noticed. Thats all I can say.

[@mc84bostonma]

Did this send a check engine code? Effect the driving at all?

[@DjvvhcGgyg]

How much was the part

[@nikkifinley2543]

You can actually remove the seat cushion and access the pump as opposed to taking the whole seat out

[@AnonymousSt-f4r]

Where is the fuel control module 😅

[@yyz125]

Nice job..how many miles on It?..Is it the 3.6 engine?...heard about oil pump gear bolt issue causing chain failure on those engines.

[@808tanaks]

Looks like a glazed donut on top of that sender unit. Lol

[@johnabellesaunders7875]

What is the name of the puddy you used when you first tried to seal it and it didn't work ?

[@FarReachFR]

The cream colored putty was "PL Premium" Construction Adhesive. I have found it come in handy in a variety of uses beyond its original intent. Good stuff. But in this particular instance, it was worth a try, and it helped, but didnt completely seal it. The cracks were forming near the edge. Maybe had it been more central it could have handled it.

[@mariotapia6521]

Was the fuel pressure regulator inside the fuel pump or would it be on the passenger side?

[@FarReachFR]

From what I can tell terms wise, the "fuel pressure regulator" is inside the passenger tank. What I changed here is considered a drivers side tank "Fuel Filter". So if the regulator is what you are after, then I would think the passenger tank is where it is at. The passenger tank and housing comes apart in pretty much the same fashion as the driver side shown here. Just the internal equipment that is pulled out and replaced is slightly different.

[@mariotapia6521]

@@FarReachFR Thanks for the info! I spent so much time looking for the fuel pressure regulator all over the car and online and nothing came up. I'm no experienced auto mechanic but I like working on my cars and this thing was driving me crazy lol

[@ericayala1738]

I’m having the same issue right now I have a p2294 code biggest problem I’m still very new to Audi

[@albertpacheco3490]

Where did you buy the part ?

[@FarReachFR]

You can pick them up in several places, but I ordered min off Amazon. It was about $50. Here is a link to the one I used but there are other options. Also this is for the driver side. Keep in mind that passenger side is a different part. Good luck. www.amazon.com/dp/B07SKVHWLG/ref=psdc_15727161_t1_B06XK7WJLP

Hello friend ,if the fuel pump damaged, it's written on dashboard esp fault?

[@HarpreetSingh-mq6dz]

No mine is broken cover , but ecu/dash is all fine

[@dtechnic1469]

I have a touareg 3.0 tdi its delay start. Whats the problem you know

[@cabbie2111]

do you think that the triple clamp 12mm bolt really needed to come out (one on front of rear driver seat)? Thanks for your reply in advance

[@FarReachFR]

If you are wanting to take the rear seat out, the answer is yes. I am not sure there is enough room to try and swap the fuel pump with the back seat in place. It would be really tight. It certainly is worth taking the whole seat out, and that does require both the Triple Square 10mm and 12mm bolts to come out.

[@cabbie2111]

@@FarReachFR Thanks, well done!

[@chhaikapuchea3112]

P0087 Fuel Rail pressure too low Can you help me bro what can i do?

[@FarReachFR]

If your fuel pressure is too low it generally only 1 of 2 things. 1. Either there is a leak. 2. The fuel pump/regulators are failing. Considering RobmccIII pointed out that there are a couple fuel system recalls on the Audi Q7 and Q5, you may in this case want to have the dealer check it out. Normally I avoid dealers because of the very high cost. BUT if it is related to one of the fuel system recall items, It could very well be they will fix it for you for free. (if it is the fuel pump failing because of cracking).

[@michumichu3339]

Y que falló tenía el coche?? No arrancaba o arrancaba mal?? No tengo un fallo de que me arranca fatal el coche hasta que no empieza a girar el motor no llega presión de gasoil al motor

[@FarReachFR]

it would struggle to start. Many tries were needed just to have it sputter. In short, it just wouldn't start. Notable was if you did get it to start, you could keep it running, so long as you kept the RPM's up.

[@briancaffeine8158]

hOW CAN YOU TELL WHAT SIDE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED?

[@FarReachFR]

Well in my case first I used my sense of smell. Gas was much more potent on one side of the car. Second I got under the car and I could actually see some moisture from fuel.

[@whome1636]

You could also use the matchstick test!

[@yesno-cv2cd]

How do i fuel this car i cantthe the litle door blocking the fuel hole

[@mranderson2125]

Good job buddie! Don’t do the recall at the dealership they will just put stupid shitty tape on top! Do it yourself brand new!

[@mranderson2125]

Looks like the Audi recall team did their shitty repair
