HPFP replaced...now my car seems slower

lsdless · 06-05-2009, 06:49 PM

My car only has 3400 miles on it. I got the infamous signs of a failing HPFP so I took it in and sure enough it had failed. It was replaced under warranty and I got the car back Wednesday. It seems a little slower but I can't tell if my mind is messing with me. I was told the new pump that was installed was improved. Did anyone else notice a difference after the new pump. Everything else seems fine but it just don't feel like it revs up as quick as it used to.

I didn't know that faulty HPFP were adding power... :0

Mate,its just your idea. Everything is great with your car.

They updated mine. 33.3. With the JB3 back in, it still defiately feels slower. I should have never let them update it.

You are Olympiakos-fan...thats why. They wanted to hurt you.

Sometimes adaptation occurs and it will start to feel better, give it some time.

This is why I'm kind of happy that my warranty is up. So when I take my car in to have the fuel pump replaced, I know that's all they're gonna do.

Is yours not revving up as freely as it used to?

It's always been laggy and bogs down low in the rpm's. A shame, really.
