HPFP help, where to buy?
My car is 09 so outside of 10 year warranty on HPFP. I'm getting code 29f2 & 29dc. My car died twice on the freeway today within a half hour. I was able to restart it and drive it. I have owned the car for 9 years and as far as I know the high and low-pressure fuel system is original.
I was checking on HPFP and the prices are : FCP $720.99 Pelican $752 (after discount) Turner and ECS use Magneti Marelli (brand)for $670.99 but no reviews. Has anyone had good luck with any of these or anything else? |

The hpfp was at 800 them went 200 and the car died at 50 while the lpfp was at 70psi.
So it seems obvious it's the hpfp. $720 is a lot but it does seem like the best choice. It has lasted 12 years and 114k miles. |

Just did my HPFP purchased from FCP EURO. Plugged it in, car was as good as new. Sent the core in for a small refund. And it feels good to know I won't have to pay a cent if it goes bad and I have to replace it again.
There are some cheaper no name brands I saw going for ~$300 on eBay. Some reviews say they've been good for thousands of miles. Some reviews say they were shit upon first crank. I decided I didn't want to play that roulette. Not when I promised to always take care of this car the right way before buying it- knowing the maintenance and love this car requires. |

Will see how long it lasts. took about 4 hrs to install |
