I had to get my towed car today. Here is the codes I saw. It is an 18 M4 comp with an MHD GTS style tune.

Anyone else run into this issue? How much to repair?

- DME active codes -
11A002 - High pressure fuel, plausibility Pressure too low.
11AA03 - High-pressure fuel system: High pressure pump, pressure too low.
11AA05 - High-pressure fuel system: High pressure pump 2, pressure too low.

- DME shadow (inactive) codes -
11A401 - Fuel high pressure during fuel injection release: Pressure too low.
11B401 - Fuel high pressure or after enabling injection (2nd ambient condition set after delay): Pressure too low.
1E5A20 - Engine torque limit: maximum target torque permanently exceeded.

Need a new fuel pump?

Hopefully it's the fuel pressure sensor at the rear of the silver HPFP rail. If that goes bad it will think both HPFPs are pumping wrong.

Thanks. I am going to call a few local shops in the am and call a tow truck. Since it does not go into neutral (DCT) I know it will be a PITA to tow around.

If you can't switch the DCT into neutral then go under and pull the wire that connects to the lock lever. There's a post here somewhere showing how to do it before towing.

Dragging it will break things. Use 4 wheel dollies if you can't get into neutral.

Car is currently at the shop. It will need fuel pumps replaced. Shop can order the pumps for around $2100 and it will take 9-10 hours of labor for about $3700. Is that reasonable?

Should I try to order fuel pumps myself to save a little?

Yes. I always order my own parts, even if I can't do the work.

I'm sorry but $5K is expensive in my mind. I would YouTube how to remove an injector and manifold (get to rails and pumps), and how to do a pump swap (Dorch/Spool/Nostrum vids). Then I'd swap the sensor first, and try. Next would be the pumps.

Just bout a pair of BOSCH 66825. Shop didn't seem happy and said could not warranty the install but I am not paying $2K for OEM pumps if BOSCHE sells OE's for a fraction of the cost.

[behindthen0thing]

fucking 5 grand for two fuel pumps? thats practically almost the price of swapping an engine.
sounds like a rippoff to me

[mtr3s]

Not $5K. $2K for OEM, but I bought Bosche OE ones. Shop said about 9-10 hours of labor which is about $1600.
