I drive a 2001 Passat and I can't find anywhere on KZbin I just bought mine from a friend and well it's started to like not want to start right away

None of these cars in any youtube videos are like mine. It is a 2003 passat w8 with 4motion. There is no plastic ring. The ring is metal. The pump won't turn so I can loosen it from the tank. I hate vw. I will never own another one. This one may become a bonfire.

i hear you mate. im just facing to the same problem, mine is a 1.6 of 2004, i could barely find anything that does look similar. this is really annoying

[@OGDooshbagg]

@@daedricprince Finally got it changed, but it was a bitch. Parts stores wanted $800 for the pump. I found one on Amazon for $80. Took 3 hours, but It's working great now. Hope you have the same good luck.

Bro don't burn it, I'll take it off your hands

[@OGDooshbagg]

@@shadow-jg1rt Why would you want to do a crazy thing like that? Anyway, there is a transmission issue now and the new battery I put in a month ago is dead after not starting for 2 days. Trust me, you don't want this car. I'm going to junk it next week.

@@OGDooshbagg Ive been looking everywhere for a w8 and the ones I find in my area are usually clapped out by kids that don't know what they're doing and still ask a pretty penny for them 😆

How did you take the plug off?

[@HaynesManuals]

Press-in the catch at the top of the plug and gently pull. See 3'08"

Whitch fuse

[@HaynesManuals]

The fuse allocation for the fuel pump varies according to the market the vehicle was sold in. Have a look at the owners handbook or the fuse box cover - there's normally some information there.

[@sliceoflife1821]

This may be way too late for you but I have a 2005 B5 4 Motion and the fuse is #28 on the driver-side fuse panel.
