  • If necessary, the mechanic will replace the faulty fuel pressure regulator.
  • Mechanic will advise if any other parts need to be replaced (like the oil filter, if it has been affected by the fuel).

  • Mechanic will make adjustments if necessary.

What happens when a fuel sensor goes bad on my Volkswagen?

  • When the engine runs rough.
  • When there is fuel leaking out of the regulator.
  • When there is a strong smell of fuel in the engine bay.
  • When the 'Check Engine' light on the car's dashboard is on.
  • When the car doesn't perform as well as usual.
  • When there is black smoke coming from the exhaust.
  • When the car fails an emissions examination.
  • When the car's fuel consumption is higher than usual.

How long will a fuel pressure regulator replacement take on my Volkswagen?

A fuel pressure regulator replacement usually takes around 1 hour, but can take less or more time. Ultimately, the time that the job will take will depend on a number of factors, like your vehicle's make and model, year, as well as other factors. Select your car at the top of this page for information on job time and cost for your vehicle through ClickMechanic.

How often should I replace my Volkswagen fuel pressure regulator?

When the regulator does not work correctly the fuel pressure to the engine will be off. Either pushing too much fuel towards the engine or too little. This can, for example, lead to an engine that runs too rich, leading to poor fuel consumption.

In extreme cases leaks in the regulator can cause the engine's cylinders to flood by an excess of fuel. In turn it also contaminates the engine oil. This can cause damage to the engine and furthermore lead to potentially dangerous situations.

Should you experience problems with the fuel supply, then it is advisable to have the system and the fuel pressure regulator inspected and, if necessary, have the regulator replaced. Seeing that the fuel pressure regulator is especially prone to deterioration over time it should always be replaced as and when stipulated in the guidelines set out by your car's manufacturer.
