Video tutorial

In this video, you will see how to remove and replace the fuel pump of a fourth-generation Volkswagen Golf. First, remove the rear seat of your car, as the pump is located directly beneath it; then remove the fabric cover and unscrew the screws of the pump cover using a cross screwdriver.

At this point, disconnect the electrical connector of the pump and detach the two fuel hoses; all that remains is to unscrew the pump collar by tapping with flat screwdrivers or using the appropriate tool.

Once the pump is removed, replace it with the new one!

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
