All it is is a pump that sits in the fuel tank & pumps fuel...

And don't get me started on throttle pedals connected via software...

twas a TDCI engine.

i.e. a common rail diesel which has another pump to supply the injectors with 3000psi diesel feed. This needs to pressure up when the throttle is floored and its tied into the ECU so that it wont start if the alarm is activated so you can't steal the car.

Modern cars are expensive.

My last manager (i hated him as he was a *****) had the fuel pump pack up in his focus. Cost him over £1200 to get it replaced as its tied into the ECU and alarm.

I pointed, laughed then left.

Nice to have cost alot to run, Ive got A3 just come out of warrenty and the fecking Alternator packed up, total cost to fit and replace new one £310. Then needed a service, new brake disks and pads, and two front tyres, total cost for the £930 !
So total spend this month £1240 !

Wouldnt go for the 2.0 fsi either, you want the 2.0T fast car
