Hi all. My apologies, I'm not a mechanic and don't understand much. I recently drove my fabia 1.9 sdi from Scotland to Kent. From Birmingham onwards it lost half it's power and the engine became very noisy when pulling.I rang the aa once in kent and the aa mechanic thought it may have been the fuel pump(think he may have said regulator?) he towed me to a halfords auto center where it had an hours diagnosis. 4 mechanics discussed the problem. It was flooding the engine with diesel when the accelerator was pressed. they quoted 1200 quid to replace with another fuel pump. I declined the offer and the car will be arriving back in scotland soon with the aa relaying it back. Anyway it does drive but is very sluggish and noisy when pulling away or the accelerator pushed down more than lightly. still seems ecenomical when driven very lightly.
Can someone please advise me what to do in my situation.
its a 53 plate and has had a fair amount spent on the brakes/suspension replacement engine etc over last few years.
Thanks John
