I was well pleased with breaking down. Hi-5's all round! Found out what the problem was, given it was the hard way, but nonetheless I found out!

I will be listening to Ben @ QPeng next time!!!

Lol, wasn't the fuel pump, it was the NEW coil pack's!!! F**king EuroCarParts! OEM VW ftw from now on!!!!

Bolted in a new set of Bosch super 4's and it didn't work. Old coilpacks - thought its the last ditch effort before driving up to see QPeng. It worked lol.

Only problem is now, its cutting out when I hit full throttle. Then it doesn't start, just turn's over. Then if you bump start it after 5 mins, it starts  :undecided:

Mmm, another thing. Had it idling and it was fine then put it in reverse and it died. Doesn't start now, just turns over. Checked the wiring and the fuel pump wire that goes to the ECU and it reads 0V with the ignition on. The fuel pump primes when the ignition is on though...

Starting to sound like an ECU problem. Unless its the fuel pump relay?? :(
