How to Remove an Audi Fuel Pump

1. Remove the fuel filler cap, start the car and leave it running until the fuel tank is completely empty. The engine will cut off once the fuel has run out. Turn off the ignition
2. Use the pliers to disconnect the negative battery cable. Before disconnecting the battery, ensure you have the correct security code for the car radio, as all systems will be reset once the battery is disconnected.
3. Open the trunk and remove the trunk flooring cover. Locate the fuel tank behind the rear passenger seat. Remove the cover.
4. Lift the cover. Using the 1/4-inch ratchet and socket wrench remove the nut. With the nut removed, you will gain access to the fuel pump.
5. Disconnect the harness connector, fuel supply, return hose from the flange and remove the electrical connectors. Use an old rag to catch any excess fuel from the fuel lines.
6. Turn the fuel pump counter-clockwise until it unlocks and can be removed.
