How do you remove the fuel pump from a Volkswagen Golf Mk4? First, disconnect the battery cables. Next, remove the rear seat cushions from the car. Use a socket spanner to undo the securing screws of the metal panel; take it out of its place, using absorbent paper around the perimeter to soak up any leaks.

Unscrew the large securing bolt of the fuel pump, disconnect the power connectors and the liquid circulation hoses. Extract the fuel pump assembly from its housing along with any attached parts.

Finally, refit the new piece.
