Hi the link is in the description for the kit i got off ebay.

Great timing on this as I just had to do mine! Did you have any issues with your car starting after installing the pump back in?

Not really I turned the ignition on and off a few times to try and get as much fuel in the pump as possible and then cranked it over for about 10 seconds until all the air was out and it fired up.

When putting the new main shaft seal do you hammer it tightly or it is slightly away from the bottom? Cause mine takse quite a hammering to get inside and now it does not get to the bottom.

Do you think it's an issue if I have put the main shaft seal the wrong way or not fully in? It was hella stiff and I am not sure I got it all the way in. Everything else assembled properly tho.

Thanks i did rebuild on my a4 b7 2.9 tdi bre, but now is leaking oil and the car brakes, before rebuild it was leaking diesel and had no brakes, no sure what i did wrong, any advise?

@inthegarage4

No brakes must mean you have a vac leak or the pump is no longer making vac to assist your brakes so possibly put something back together wrong. oil leak is probably from gasket between pump and head.

whats the torque spec?

Hey :) Where do I have to connect the pressure tester? At the right or left bis screw? 😊

Can u help me please. I have A3 2.0 tdi 2004. in the morning it has a hard start. after first start, its fine and start normally. if let it cool for 2 3 hours. have the same problem. i replacment, injector seals, glow plug, 2 injector, and no solutions.

@inthegarage4

Sounds like you may have fuel running back to the tank after a period of time or one of the other injectors is faulty leaking the diesel into the cylinder over time. You could try a one way valve in the fuel line to eliminate the problem to before or after the tandem pump, will give you an idea where to look then. Only other thing but highly unlikely is in the tandem pump there is a pressure limiting valve in the return line out if that had failed but i doubt it.

Hi!! Where can I find the torque setting for the bolts?

@@zakkria Double chamber pump bolted to the cylinder head, driven by the camshaft. Inboard chamber creates vacuum for the brake servo so has a hose attached to it from the servo unit at the brake master cylinder. Outer chamber is a diesel fuel pump with an in and out hose connection. When the round 'garter' type seal you seen being replaced fails, diesel goes into the head and down to the sump pan, raising the oil level and of course thinning the oil.
