How to Replace a High Pressure Fuel Pump
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 авг 2024
- With the goal to increase efficiency and lower emissions, cars nowadays are switching from PFI, Port Fuel Injection, to DI, Direct Injection. Due to the nature of DI being a newer system, and the fuel system needing to create very high PSI across the fuel rail, we will be seeing countless new cars requiring replacement HPFP (high pressure fuel pumps). MINI has already seen noticed their flawed system in the first generation R56 N14 engine, and made changes to the revised and more reliable N18 engine. With that being said, replacing the high pressure fuel pump is not a difficult task, however it is something that will need to be done on newer cars.
My HPFP has been giving me problems, where it does like cold starts, and it doesn’t allow me to go past half throttle. Those are generally the symptoms of a HPFP failing, which is why I am swapping it out for a new one in this video.
I usually get my MINI parts from ECS Tuning, but I found something that seems like a better option. If you are looking to purchase a new HPFP, or other replacement parts for your german car, AND you plan on keeping your vehicle for awhile, check out the website FCP Euro. If you purchase ANYTHING from their website, engine oil, brake pads, a HPFP, or anything else, and it fails / you need a replacement, they will warranty it FOR LIFE!!! I genuinely don’t know how they stay in business with that kind of business model, but from the consumer end of it, it gives you peace of mind knowing that after you replace a part, you are covered for life. That is where I purchased my HPFP. I didn’t want to spend $1250 more than once on a single part on my car. Just for a reference, look at the price difference between both websites for the HPFP. The FCP HPFP comes with a lifetime warranty where the ECS does not, AND it costs more.. its a no brainer…

I love that you did your homework for working on this part:
- you mentioned recall info, that’s hugely important for maintaining your vehicle
- likewise you mentioned that doing your research for the part and noticing that the car wasn’t getting enough fuel to provide also was mentioned and was a good indicator.
My only recommendation is look for the high pressure fuel pump relay or fuse. Pull that first and foremost! The reasoning behind this is yes, though the rags will help, pulling the relay will stop sending the unit fuel anywhere to the fuel rail or even the engine. Once it starts to stall then go for the pump as it will be slightly easier and you’re not messing with the added 800 pounds of pressure from the fuel being sent to the rail. Besides that awesome video!!!! I love seeing people get down and dirty and working on their cars whenever possible because it’s the most intricate piece of engineering and if you master this, every other car will become slightly easier in my opinion!
Omg thank you, you just convinced me I’m capable of this fix, now I get to buy a torque wrench and some other fun toys - thanks again!
The high pressure fuel pump is the same as the Citroen Peugeot engine and are sold to Mini at a markup that you then pay if you buy a “genuine” mini one. I learned this while I worked at a mini dealership in California and when it came time to change the pump on my N14 2012 R56 I saved hundreds and the pump works great
Edit for anyone that didn’t know that the N14 is a “Prince” engine and shares components across brands. Mini/BMW charges extra because they can
Yeah he kinda got fucked, the part number 1920LL shows the psa version of the pump is worth something between 200 and 450 euros...
Was going to say exactly what you said.
In Europe you can buy the exact same pump from Citroen for around 300€.
@@MatteoVittoni where did you find it for that price? At Citroen dealership is around 600€. On Ebay the same one is around 400€.
That was my thought exactly,I have a Peugeot 207 RC that has basically the same engine and uses the same hpfp witch costs around 400€,I was totally surprised when he said that he paid 1200$ for it lol,so he basically bought 3 hpfp's, that's how he gets a lifetime warranty cuz he bought them in advance and its hardly possible he will burn through 3 hpfp's on that mini so yeah he got screwd a bit
Ante Vučetić both links in the description have it around $950 usd. That being said these have always been in that price range in the states when we are stuck buying the genuine ones. Companies are finally getting their hands on the psa ones for about half the price but unfortunately the market and sourcing the parts dictates what us the customers have to pay and what’s available...
I have land rovers and a mini r60 countryman s all4: Milan has to be hands down the most honest and reliable mechanic on youtube. Great work Milan!!
Very good video .... Congratulations. Here in Brazil I teach everyone how to repair their own high pressure pump. My search is still for an oil, or another product, that can withstand the temperature that reaches this pump.
Strong hug.
Really good and not complicated explanation how to do it. Awesome
Very nice option, hope those guys will make it!
Unfortunately I already upgraded my HPFP to 2012+ late LCI version that seems to work forever (at least I hope so 🤞). Anyway good luck to all mini fans!
What's the link to the one you bought?
Ma Espi it wasnt a bolt-on and a lot of additional parts was replaced, also a coding stuff was made.
Anyway HPFP installed is 13517607159.
Good explanation. Whenever i have to change my high pressure fuel pump; peace of cake! Thanks for the video.
No problem brother!! I figured this would help other MINI enthusiasts when time comes to it
Awesome video!!! Unlike most other video's this one is soooooooo easy to understand unlike 99% of others where the commentator goes off on a tangent telling you that his granny's flip-flops are a nice colour! I am now off to replace my hpfp in the knowledge that it will be done properly and then I can stand back and shout "I AM ALL POWERFUL!!!".
Thanks Sean! I'm happy to hear you found this video helpful 👍
@@milanmastracci No problem. I'm sure I will be checking more of your videos for future reference. My (2008) Peugeot 207cc 1.6 GT THP150 has the dreaded EP6DT engine so I'm sure it will throw me a few more problems. Keep up the good work and have a great Christmas.
Ring and Clic-R pliers. Two of my latest European car tools. Well worth it.
It may take a few drive cycles for the engine light to turn off if you don't clear the codes. Also, for those wondering, direct-injection cars always sound a little bit like diesels because of the high pressure fuel injectors.
I just installed a $200CAD rebuilt unit. I did not have 2000$ for an oem...or 1200$ for your solution... Solved my cold start problems that were getting worse and worse: proof that they don't all fail with the same symptoms.... In this video you say "that's what they do (ie ok cold start but problems over 3000rpm)". Many different o-rings on them so depending what gave, symptoms might differ... anyway thanks for video as always
If you ever have to do this job its alot easier and less messy If you take out fuse 46 for the fuel pump. Way easier to disconnect that and less mess.
Twiztid Vandervelden what did you mean? I’m about to take this job lol
I was going to ask the same why didn’t he just pull fuse. But great vid
Very helpful demonstration, thanks man, do more clips please.
Happy to help!
@@milanmastracci
Do have a video helping to verify timing on Pegeot 308 1.6T petrol? Please help, my car will start after i jammed the rear end of left shaft after reinstalling the leaky cap with silicon.
Excellent Video young Man 👍
Does anyone else flick their head up when he says peace in the outro?
Good clear explanation
Good job.
Done it a couple of times myself on some r56, was not too bad.
As an FYI, the "MINI" Motor is a PSA Peugeot Citroën. It's under a license agreement that expired in 2016. Prince is the codename for a family of automobile straight-4 engines (N14 & N18) developed by PSA Peugeot Citroën and BMW.

Hi bro. I follow all your steps and The problems has started from high pressure fuel pump and wiring harness, I have replaced HPFP and HP fuel sensor and wiring too after that I have got problem with intake camshaft sensor. I got theses trouble codes. 277A, 300C, 2C58 and 2789. Help me please. Thank you
The crowsfoot must be 90 degrees to the torque wrench handle at all times, otherwise the torque will be incorrect and over torqued.
By next to nothing. Like really I do understand that having it in line makes the lever longer but I doubt it makes any significant difference, and it definitely is better than not using a torque wrench at all.
@@imnota it does make a difference, which is why it's taught in every mechanical trade school.
Excelent tip!
Got slk250 there is not much on RUclips about how to change the high pressure fuel pump somehow I got to your video , nice description and clear how to fix it . I wish my pump is so easy to access!!! I just did mine it’s at the back of the engine ,after 5 h nightmare scratched bloody hands all over I replaced it but car is worse than before!! I Bought a part on Amazon , pump sucks so yes buy original part not replacement no brand parts , now I have to remove it which probably takes another 3 h since i know how to do it now it might take less than 5 h . I just ordered new part from Mercedes which cost 3 x more than the one I got on Amazon, there is bunch of fuel pumps seems like from same seller under different names because description is same pictures same etc. pump was scratched on side like it was used before and primed out with screwdriver .
My new pump gets here delivered in 8 days in local Mercedes and labor costs around $900 to put the pump on. Just changed pulley myself for $25 they wanted to charge me $460 !! But for the fuel pump might have to leave it to them with all the computers it’s all complicated.. before I changed the fuel pump car was driving ok in limp mode low rpm the engine light was off that’s why I didn’t see it when I bought the car 3 days before I noticed the fuel pump is bad , but yesterday I changed the pump from Amazon and car drive 300 feet and die turn off by itself when slow down to turn or stop on intersection!!! I gonna try to put back the previous one if it drives the same as before i can put the OEM myself but if it’s still staling I have to let the Mercedes do it for around $2000
Update!!!
So I just purchased the high pressure fuel pump from same company you recommended 👍 it’s original OEM Mercedes bez with all the covers and magnet not like the one refurbished from Amazon didn’t have any covers and the magnet .
It cost 3x more but it works!!! I tried to drive on sport mode rough to red rpm and still fine no engine light on !!! I just changed it 5 h ago so I give it more days but thanks for recommending the European company with life time warranty because Mercedes website offers only 1 year!!!
Your car sounds great what did you do to your exhaust? I got Mercedes Slk250 and it’s too quiet need louder car because people with bigger cars can’t see me almost got hit by suv today lady didn’t see me was turning to my line 🤷🏽♂️⛔️💣
Im thinking X pipe or straight pipe and K&N filter intake similar to yours .
Fcp euro the best they even got lifetime warranty on break pads and rotors you can just send them back and send you new ones free
This is just crazy. I dont know how they would warranty wear and tear items. Have you had any experience with them Los ???
I just ordered my part from Mercedes yesterday but just checked Fcp euro and the pump is $165 cheaper than at Mercedes plus got lifetime warranty! MB dealership told me if I install the pump my self there might not be any warranty 💣 and if they do it I think they give u just 1 years warranty..
The camshaft in the old one seems to be so clean! I bought a c4 thp lately and very soon needed to replace this hpfp, it was a lot more dirty. Have you flushed your motor lately (I mean, when you recorded this video) ?
Thanks a lot for the tutorial. I've done mine following your video. Kudos mate!
Very good master
Thank you, Great video. Just got the Crow's Feet tools using your link.
I was told you had to also replace the hard line as well as the fuel inlet line as they aren’t reusable? Heard stories where the inlet hose would pop off because it was a one time use only.
Good info thanks, Hey if anyone watching needs a pump, CAUTION do not buy from the guy on eBay that has pumps that range from $115 to $140, he's just selling old worn out pumps, just a buyer beware his stuff is garbage.
Great vid Milan thanks for the effort 👍👍👍
Thanks for this kinda videos!
Excellent video
High pressure fuel line wrench size is 12mm?
Does anyone know what oil is put in the high pressure pump during repairs?
Awesome video, thank you.
Glad you liked it!
Can you please link where you got the blue clamp thing for the fuel line? Thanks!
what is the tightening torque of the high pressure pump?
Are you and Luca going to do a shake down track day with your two track cars?
Just done our mini for £330 pounds in 75 mins and I’m no mechanic , thanks for the video and for saving me £500. If you purchase a bmw part it will set you back £700 and then 3 hrs labour ( which is a joke) at a main dealer will be at least £300 . There is a bmw part and a psa part as this engine is a joint venture so parts are the same but vary dramatically price wise , buy a psa part.
What is the part no. for the PSA part? Thanks
Another awesome video! Do you know if there is a release valve for the fuel pressure if needed? My GM cars had something called a Shrader valve on the fuel rail. I have seen some prices on those HPFPs, they are expensive. To save on labor will help when I need it.
Does that solve a p016b car code kia Cerato 2016?
That's true, in some countries mini changes your HPFP free of charge. Not in mine though :(
Great Video , Thanks.....
Is there anyone out there that knows a company that will refurbish these HPFP and make them better? Secondly has any one analysed why they go wrong.Which component in the HPFP is not functioning according to spec?I bought a cheap HPFP (ordered from China with a supposedly 2 year warranty ) but failed within a year.I am now trying the 0SIAS refurbished (claims 3 year warranty) to how long it lasts.
Great tutorial video, but seriously, ebay a rebuilt pump for $95.
Is it so that the 12mm nut on N18 engine must torque only one time at 19 lbs
I'll be doing this soon. I got away with clearing the code (P3091). It would also light up the Orange Colored Motor Symbol with the line that angles through it. I know that puts the engine in "Limp Mode." This happened on a R/T from NY/NJ region to Orlando, Florida recently! WHEW! I'm buying two, I always stockpile two parts deep on my cars. The torque wrench you used was it the 1/4" Drive on the high pressure fuel line?
i screwed myself by buying a car with this engine. Never again
I swapped the HPFP over and now the engine will crank but not ‘catch’ and run.
I'm late to the party here but just bought a 2012 S Clubman that is in need of a HPFP. Unfortunately the part is just out of warranty, but I noticed that Detroit Tuned sells remanufactured HPFPs. Any word from anyone on the reliability of those parts?
Excellent video. How did you diagnose the HPFP problem and determine it needed replacing?
Julio Valenzuela use a diagnostic tool which you can get for £30 it should tell you on the digital read out that you have a fuel issue.
Hi I'm doing the same preparation as you .... Or buy the black hose inlet of your big turbo please ????
Hello bro nice videos. if i want to remove the injectors i can leave it over night and i am good to remove the injectors? there will be no pressure on them ?
Would a cam/crank correlation problem cause low fuel code p0087?
I'm living in Korea. My car is a 2008 Mini Cooper R56S. I need to replace the high pressure pump, so I am looking for aftermarket parts now. Can you recommend it to me?
great video!
Glad you enjoyed it Chris!
I'm desperately trying to find a way of removing the low pressure line having had the tabs snap off on the first attempt. I see you appear to have had the same problem but edited out how you actually released it. Instead in the example, the connector is already released which is no help.
What were the symptoms that point you to the direction that the HIgh flow fuel pump replacement?
Start up problems, low fuel rail pressure, high rpm high load misfires.
Can a bad high pressure fuel pump make your car misfire ? My workshop said it’s because of the high pressure fuel pump
Thanks for the video! Would they ship to me in South Africa?
Whats the thing thats covering the air intake filter ? First time a see that
Maybe you can assist me..I'm having a hissing sound whenever I shut off my DS3 Tho engine like yours. Most forums mentioned the valve cover or PVC pipe. So what do you it could be.
I'm not entirely sure, but mine makes the same noise.. It's strange
Problem is, FPC giving lifetime warranty, what happens when business shuts shop in a few years. No replacement
Did you buy the OEM part from ESC or the 3rd party part from FCP?
OEM from FCP
@@milanmastracci Cool. Thx
This is for diesel engines?
Does it need to be programmed/calibrated after installation?
No it does not. It is a straight swap 👍
So the price just jumped from like $680 to $1100?? I was like 2 days away from buying this part (waiting on a paycheck) and now I’m nowhere close.
any fault code to indicate its hpfp problem? thanks.
I got a "anti pollution system fault" with engine management light and error code P0087 come up
Mini fans. I have a RCZ R, 270hp(stock), with THP 1.6. There was a rev2 from Peugeot on this exact pump(that broke on my at 90.000km). Perhaps try and get the rev2, if BMW also has a newer version. Hope this helps
tryin to sell my thp 200 the maintenance costs are horrendous never gonna buy another french car again
Nekminute can’t argue with that. The minis BMW 1 Seris and Citroën’s have similar problems. The 270BHP seems to be alright when driven hard and maintained well though
hello how cant i repalce on my car 3008 pk 2011?
What failed on the pump ? And if it's a common issue surely it's a better idea to buy an upgraded one if of course they exist 😎🤔👍
They don't exist. Fucking minis man.
May sound like a dumb comment but it’s possible to change the hpfp without draining the fuel out the system?! Just as long as you leave it a while after driving right.
And is this the same with ever cars hpfp?
$1200 dollars is half of what I paid for my mini
Sweet, wish I had this video the first time I swapped HPF pumps. That low pressure fuel line is a bit of a bitch.
Yeah its not fun.. Hopefully this tool will help for next time, amzn.to/2ybMxws
Has it gave. You any problems ??
None yet. Still going strong 💪
Hi do I need my vin number for order my HPFP because I went to the website at FCP Euro but I didn’t have any lock with it
No you do not. The HPFP is the same for all of the turbocharged 2007-2013 R56 Mini Cooper S and JCW engines.
milanmastracci thank you
What type of air intake in your mini ?
DDM Works is the brand of his intake.
My mechanic said (when I replaced my HPFP) that you should replace the lines going and coming from it just to be safe.
If they haven't been replaced before, yes you should. I didn't do the second torque sequence to the nuts on the line after building my engine, which means mine was good. I've driven the car since this video and its running great with no leaks, but that is a good idea.
1200 for a fuel pump fuck that, total the car lol
LOL stupid prices for these MINIs eh..?
"How they stay in business?'
They charge 10X times its actual cost, that's how!
They don't though.. that's the weird thing
the engine sound like its broke
4th?
typical bmw overpricing.........................
Gotta love those torque bolts damn Germans! lol
