Just finished replacing the fuel pump timing solenoid on a rwd mk6 tddi with a vp44 pump. I had errors P0149 and P1564 and loss of power and engine sounding rattly. Holy crap what a torturous job. Access so difficult. Some notes to share: -undoing the torx screws on the Solenoid I used an extension torx bar and ratchet and wedged a screwdriver behind the ratchet and up against part of the engine block to ensure the torx bit didn't pop out of the screw. -the 4hole bracket at the back of the pump... During reinstall I taped the 'difficult' bolt into the end of an extension bar and socket to make sure it wouldn't fall out when blindly trying to find the hole. -my old solenoid didn't test as open circuit after removal. Maybe it was still good? But the wires from the upper part of the pump to the solenoid had zero insulation. Maybe it rots with heat and age? I wondered whether the problem was actually these wires shorting together. I put heat shrink on any remaining old wiring. - after starting the motor runs so smooth and powerful. I read somewhere it's a 2hr job. I took about 6 hours. I do not recommend this job if you're not an experienced automotive tinkerer. I has some real "I don't think I can get to this this bolt" moments. I didn't jack up the vehicle. In hindsight some more room under it would have been nice. I removed the inlet manifold and starter motor prior to accessing the pump bracket then the solenoid. i didn't remove the EGR valve.

This works, it's a right fiddle- but i've just done it. Symptom of timing solenoid failure is- engine sounds like a bag of nails and you have a large loss of power. This is because your injection timing is now completely out. If the vehicle won't run it is either the metering solenoid between the pipes at the back of the pump or the PCB within the top of the pump. If you have the locking kit which is £25 from eBay- i'd say it may be easier to just remove the pump and do it off the vehicle, time wise by the time you've taken the starter off, possibly broken the wiring to the starter in the process, got your head stuck between the engine and subframe, dropped most of the bolts into crevasses and taken ages to recover them, got covered in oil, grease and grit etc etc. Paid for a masseuse to sort your dodgy neck out etc etc. In the UK the solenoid for bosch VP30 and VP44 are available from Transit parts UK (TPUK) Ps make sure when you remove the old solenoid you don't leave the small O ring from the end of the solenoid in the pump as you won't get the new solenoid to seat correctly. This was on a rear wheel drive transit. Front wheel drive i believe may be a little easier......

Thank you very much for posting this and showing testing (ohms). I have a USA spec BMW 524TD that as a Bosch VE pump but with one difference: timing advance was electronically metered with the solenoid. Different from the euro spec 524TD was all mechanical. It was difficult to find info on why 95% of the Bosch VE pumps in other cars in USA (cummins, cat, etc) did not have the same thing. Then I started looking at the next generation of pump VP30 and VP44 and sure enough, there's the exact same timing solenoid. Thanks for posting!

You'll have to remove the intake manifold (just like on this video) for access to back of fuel pump, remove the 4 fuel pipes by undoing their holding nuts from top of injectors and back of fuel pump. Remove bracket holding heater hoses on top/left of engine. You'll then be able to remove engine black top cover and gain access to the 4 injectors. I would not recommend you do this job unless you have a tool to prime the fuel system afterwards, or you'll never start the engine, no matter how long you crank it for. Good luck

Usually if the pump is faulty. It will have p0149(timing error) with p1564 (reduce fueling). Go to fordtransit .org. This is a great website for ford transit repair tips. Get a good code reader (ELM 327 cable with toggle switch for $30) then download forscan software. It's FREE. This allows you to check error codes, program new keys and replacement pump. If you need to buy a pump. Get one from www.pbasher.com they're about $1300 aus DOLLAR compare to $2800 local. The pump is refurbished and virginised(clear to code) so don't need to have someone program it in for you. Hope this helps. SEBTOOFLY , NSW number plate, HELLO from MELBOURNE....!!!!
