have anybody had this trouble my td5 90 misses ,lacks power and drinks juice , have replaced the usual injector harness and cleaneed the ecu connector many times, the man at the garage says that it is showing fault code 57 and thinks that its the pump and would cost £1000 to fix it , im hoping that somebody on here has had the same problem and found that it was some thing minor

I'd say fuel pressure regulator has to be worth a look before forking out £1000.

Just assuming it is the pump, why would it cost £1000? He is seriously taking the proverbial...

Even if you paid up to £300 for a brand new genuine pump and even if you drop the tank to fit it then you are looking at a couple of hours labour - I would expect to pay £400 tops - or instruct them to cut an access panel and then neatly and carefully rivet in a new one and do it in about an hour. Or go aftermarket and probably do the whole lot for £175.
