Causes and Fixes P0087 Code: Fuel Rail/System Pressure Too Low

How to fix a P0087 engine code: Fuel Rail/System Pressure Too Low
A P0087 code is set when the fuel pressure sensor detects low fuel pressure at the fuel rail.
Many modern vehicles have two fuel pumps: a low-pressure fuel pump (LPFP) in the gas tank and a high-pressure fuel pump (HPFP) bolted to the engine.
Check oil for fuel or metal from damaged components.
Possible Causes of a P0087 Code:
Bad Fuel Pressure Sensor
Clogged Fuel Filter
Bad Low Pressure Fuel Pump (LPFP)
Bad High Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP)
Bad Cam Follower
Bad Fuel Pressure Regulator

    I had a p0087 on my vw 2.0tdi, it was crank, no start. I changed the low pressure pump and it ran fine for 2k miles. No the fault code is back. This time the car starts but cuts out after about 10 seconds. I'm thinking it's now I stuck injector? I'm going to try the injector leak down test this weekend. Hopefully I can find the fault. I cant imagine the new vw low pressure pump isn't running properly. What do you think? I've changed the fuel pressure sensor and regulator last week but no difference. Thanks.

    Thanks for the video. I have the dreaded p0087 code on a 2010 jk wrangler diesel 2.8. Code will only come on when the vehicle is under load and up inclines. Before I have a go at taking out the hpfp for inspection is there anything else I should test?

    Would a bad injector cause any of these problems

    Hello everyone, I had a problem with the high pressure pump, it's a golf 6 2.0tdi 110hp. The pump was replaced, the entire system was cleaned of sawdust created by the pump, however, after driving for 10 km and restarting the car, the car starts shaking in reverse and emits white smoke. After about 10 minutes, the heater light also went out, and the diagnostics shows a fuel pressure low error.

    Is it common to have fuel pouring from the hpfp?
