I had my mk2 for 4 years and the fuel pump made a humming noise for the whole time I had the car, think its pretty common, wouldnt worry too much about it!

Err the fuel pumps making a horrible noise when driving and the cars cutting out after about 30 minutes so have had to have the fuel pump changed err twice (as thought new Bosch one might be faulty) oh and the filter and line, so now its a process of buying new stuff untill its ok as its driving me NutS!!!! Been told it may be the fuel lift pump in the tank so looks like i'll get one of those next ... as its acting like air in the line?? Who knows?
